Just days before Members of Parliament in the United Kingdom voted to proscribe Palestine Action as a terrorist organization, Mehdi Hasan and Owen Jones sat down to unpack the decision—and the broader crackdown on pro-Palestinian speech—in the latest episode of ‘Two Outspoken.’

Palestine Action protesters are now facing possible charges under the Terrorism Act 2000 and, under the act, could face up to 14 years in prison for voicing their support for Palestine Action. Mehdi and Owen break down the dangerous precedent the UK’s Members of Parliament vote is setting.

Mehdi and Owen also unpacked why the Bob Vylan “scandal” is a deliberate strategy to distract from what’s happening in Gaza, and examined how Western mainstream media “buried” Israel’s genocidal rhetoric in the same time as they devoted their coverage to condemn anti-Israel chants.

Mehdi and Owen also discussed in this episode Zeteo’s new documentary ‘Gaza: Doctors Under Attack,’ and explained the hypocrisy around the BBC’s decision to shelve it due to concerns of “partiality.”
