The charges stem from seven Palestine Action activists paint-spraying the Scottish resort to protest against the US president’s stance on Gaza. Palestine Action activists accused of vandalising a Scottish golf course owned by United States President Donald Trump have been accused of “terrorism” offences, according to reports. The potential use of “terror-scale” sentencing was reported by The Guardian and The New York Times on Friday. The seven activists, who spray-painted messages in support of Gaza and dug up turf at Trump’s Turnberry golf resort in Ayrshire last year, have been charged with malicious damage “having a terrorist connection,” the newspapers reported. An initial hearing on the cases is due to open at the High Court in Glasgow on Monday, August 31.
