The gap in my understanding is, why this particular group? There are endless groups and movements in favour of the Palestinian cause that haven't been marked by the UK's overbearing security state, so why not just lend her support to one of those instead?

This is a direct action group that attempts to disrupt organisations that support or trade with Israel. The other ones just uselessly annoy passers-by in a few state sanctioned streets for a few hours.
She is an avowed Communist (and Irish) this group might just fit her world view.

Sometimes it feels like the West is going backwards. Censoring voices and publications due to expression of freedom? Back to Victorian era soon I guess.

Absolutely. The fact that you can be fined or jailed in Germany for insulting politicians like Friedrich Merz is insane. And of course, he’s perfectly allowed to call his opponents whatever he pleases if it benefits him. Now I wonder what other regime in Germany’s past has laws against criticizing the chancellor…

Get a grip. PA is a proscribed organisation, and with good justification. If Sally wishes to fund the organisation, she must face the same consequences as those funding similar organisations.
The justification isn't that good, it's "damage to property" repeatedly which yeah criminal but not terrorism. The UK's proscription of Palestine Action is hanging on by threadbare credibility, it's political.

Damage to property including military bases, damage to property considered to be Jewish-owned, and a documented list of targets including charities, government buildings and financial institutions.
Let’s not trivialise such activities.
We’re firmly beyond the pale when you use a decommissioned prison van as a battering ram, attack security personnel with a sledgehammer and mark people with spray paint.

The UK populace has immense opposition to Westminster's handling of the events because of a great lack of transparency.
If they were told the truth (that the country has to do what the White House says or else the new blackshirts do to Downing Street as they've recently rehearsed in Southampton, Belfast, Rotherham and Hull, plus the UK police and troop numbers are too small to affect the outcome) they could start to think more realistically about the situation.

There is so much misinformation in your comment that it’s difficult to find a good place to start. Even if one were to bother, you’ve started from such a point of disingenuousness that it would be futile.
