The Home Secretary is preparing to ban Palestine Action after the group vandalised two aircraft at RAF Brize Norton.

Yvette Cooper has decided to proscribe the group, making it a criminal offence to belong to or support Palestine Action.

The decision comes after the group posted footage online showing two people inside the base at RAF Brize Norton in Oxfordshire.

Palestine Action said two of its activists infiltrated Britain's largest RAF base and sprayed red paint into the engines of two Airbus Voyager aircraft before escaping without being caught.

Shocking footage shared by the group this morning shows protesters storming across the RAF runway in Oxfordshire on electric scooters.
