Private eye letters page: Proscription charges Sir, I can't believe I was arrested this afternoon at Parliament Square SECONDS after holding up a placard. I deliberately wanted to show the absurdity of the current legislation by carefully wording my placard to read as follows: "I oppose genocide. I support Palestine (full stop here, if your screen reader didnt pick it up). Action needed now!" Naively I assumed I couldn't be arrested as technically if you read the placard text carefully I was not expressing support for a proscribed organisation. I am of a generation that thought that Britain believed in free speech, and I simply wanted to express my utter horror at the present situation in Gaza. But the strategically placed full stop failed tocsave me IAN D, MURSELL, London.
