Huda Ammori calls for proscription to be lifted after high court finds it to be very serious interference with protest rights
The co-founder of Palestine Action has said the ban on the group “massively backfired” and called for its proscription to be suspended after the high court found it to be unlawful.
Three senior judges ruled on Friday that the ban was disproportionate and constituted very serious interference with the rights to protest and free speech.

Luis Muñoz Pinto, 27, who was sent to notoriously brutal prison in El Salvador would like to clear his name after US judge’s ruling
A US federal judge’s order that some of the Venezuelan men sent by the Trump administration to a notorious prison in El Salvador must be allowed to return to the United States to fight their cases has been greeted with hope and a sense of vindication – but also fear – by one of the deportees.
US district judge James Boasberg ruled on Thursday in Washington DC that the Trump administration should facilitate the return of deportees who are currently in countries outside Venezuela, saying they must be given the opportunity to seek the due process they were denied after being illegally expelled from the US last March.
Boasberg added that the US government should cover the travel costs of those who wish to come to the US to argue their immigration cases.

What is the key to a good relationship?
For some couples, it’s important to share hobbies. Others say having individual interests is imperative. I’ve read that couples who sleep in separate beds are the happiest and I’ve also read that sleeping in separate beds is the death knell of romance. When I got engaged, I asked my parents – who have been married for 40 years – what advice they had for me, and my mother offered: “Contribute as much as you can to your retirement accounts.” OK!

Denmark could face legal action over an agreement that gives the US sweeping powers on Danish soil, over claims it is “unconstitutional” and could pose problems in talks with Washington over Greenland.
The agreement, which was signed under the Biden administration in 2023 and was passed by the Danish parliament last year, gives the US “unhindered access” to its airbases and powers over its civilians.

Zijn land heeft nog altijd voortdurend tekort aan luchtverdedigingswapens. Soms leveren Oekraïnes bondgenoten volgens hem "pas op het allerlaatste moment" nieuwe raketten om Russische drones en raketten uit de lucht te halen.
Oekraïners zitten in de strengste winter in jaren vaak zonder stroom en verwarming. Rusland bestookt gericht de Oekraïense energie-infrastructuur, met steeds grotere aantallen projectielen om de luchtverdediging te overspoelen.
Maar Rusland is niet aan de winnende hand, hield Zelensky tal van hoogwaardigheidsbekleders voor op de veiligheidsconferentie in München. Hij wees op de torenhoge verliezen die het Russische leger lijdt en de minieme terreinwinst die het boekt. "Zo weinig voortgang dat het irrelevant is", beaamde NAVO-topman Mark Rutte.
