The sentencing decision delivered in England on 12 June 2026 in the Palestine Action case marks one of the first prominent judicial tests of a little-noticed but constitutionally troubling provision expanded by the Counter-Terrorism and Sentencing Act 2021, under which terrorism-related consequences such as altered release arrangements, forfeiture orders and long-term notification duties can be attached to ordinary criminal convictions on the basis of a judicial finding made after conviction rather than a jury verdict.
