   @ronanmcd Things like this arrest of a disabled blind man today, who the UK government class as a terrorist sympathiser, would surely make the Starmer government unpopular, assuming the news organisations there choose to report it.

     Terrorism is action, usually violent, designed to instill terror.
     Oxford defines it "the unlawful use of violence and intimidation, especially against civilians, in the pursuit of political aims."

     I doubt anyone was feeling intimidated or chilled with terror when they saw a few military planes daubed in paint.
