The University of Nottingham and the University of Birmingham have successfully obtained High Court orders to evict pro-Palestinian protest camps that have been occupying their campuses for weeks. The court ruled in favor of the universities, granting possession orders to remove the demonstrators who had set up tents since May, stating that protesters had no real prospect of showing their human rights would be affected. The encampments were part of broader national protests expressing solidarity with Gaza and accusing universities of complicity in Palestinian issues. The judges emphasized that there are alternative ways for activists to protest without occupying the campuses, leading to the eviction orders being granted without the need for a full trial.
