Just to be clear as much as this is an abhorrent thing for them to do, it won't result in anything. The people who they have arrested have already been charged, so this changing the law doesn't have any effect on that legal decision and pretty much no one else is associated with them.
They're a very small very vocal activist group. The general feeling is that they actually did go too far on this. They are not banning protests in general just this particular organisation, which in fairness, did break into a military base so I don't know what they expect it to happen.
So you're probably safe from oppression, even if you were actually in the UK.
Vandalizing military equipment to protest against a genocide doesn't strike me as "too far".
