A spokesperson for Palestine Action said the manifestations of independence were contradicted within the same sentences in which they were made.

"What's going on behind closed doors demonstrates clear evidence of collusion between government, a foreign private arms manufacturer, the CPS, the Attorney General's Office and the police," they said. "This clear abuse of power shows how the state is prioritising the interests of Elbit Systems over the rights and freedoms of its own citizens."

Documents previously revealed through FoI requests suggested Israeli embassy officials in London attempted to get the Attorney General's Office to intervene in UK court cases relating to the prosecution of protesters.
