Anti-Israel activist Roger Waters faces possible prison time, after being reported to the UK counter-terror police for supporting banned NGO Palestine Action, according to a report by The Jewish Chronicle on Monday.

Th Chronicle said that Waters posted a video hours after the NGO was proscribed, saying the following:

 “I am Spartacus. OK, this is Independence Day, July 5th 2025. I declare my independence from the government of the UK who have just designated Palestine Action a terrorist – a proscribed terrorist organisation.

"For the record I support Palestine Action. It’s a great organisation. They are non-violent. They are absolutely not terrorist in any way.

"They are a non-violent protesting organization, protesting the presence in the UK of Elbit Systems who are an Israeli arms manufacturing organization. Alright so that’s that. I support Palestine Action. And I always will because that is the right thing to do.”
