Roger Waters has voiced his support for Palestine Action, risking prosecution, and a potential 14-year jail term, by doing so, as the organisation is now proscribed as a terrorist group in the UK under the Terrorism Act 2000.

As of Saturday, July 5, membership of Palestine Action, or expressing public support for the group, is a criminal offence in Britain. On July 5, police in London arrested 29 people in Parliament Square for holding placards stating, “I oppose genocide, I support Palestine Action”.

In the video posted on his social media channels on July 5, former Pink Floyd legend Waters says, “For the record, I support Palestine Action”, calling the pressure group “a great organisation”, and sharing his belief that the “non-violent” group are “absolutely not terrorists in any way.”

Speaking from his studio, Waters then flips the camera on his phone to display a piece of cardboard on which he has written the words, ‘ROGER WATERS SUPPORT PALESTINE ACTION’ beneath which he added “Parliament has been corrupted by agents of a genocidal foreign power! STAND UP AND BE COUNTED. IT’S NOW!!!”

The cardboard is dated “5th July 2025.”
