Massive Attack frontman arrested

The protest targeted the recent ban on Palestine Action, a direct-action group that has been vocal about the conflict in the Middle East.

Del Naja, 61, described the group's efforts as 'highly patriotic' and focused on preventing the UK from becoming involved in serious war crimes.

The Metropolitan Police made arrests ranging from ages 18 to 87 for showing support for a proscribed organization.

The incident has sparked a wider debate about free speech and the government's crackdown on anti-war activism.
