Birmingham University seeks court order against Pro-Palestine protest encampment

The University of Birmingham is bringing a High Court challenge against a Pro-Palestinian protest encampment in a bid to end the occupation of a campus green space.

Mariyah Ali, 20, from Walsall, claims she faces discrimination over the “manifestation” of her religious and philosophical beliefs, a judge was told. It comes after The London School of Economics was granted a court order indefinitely barring encampments in one of its buildings after students slept in its atrium for more than a month in support of Palestine.

Dr Blanco said the protesters at Chancellor’s Court had re-located to the Green Heart encampment, with there being some 83 tents or gazebos on the green space on June 20.
