London’s Met Police in Hot Water Over Pro-Palestine Rallies
by Michael Curzon, European Conservative.
Calls are growing for the head of London’s Metropolitan Police, Sir Mark Rowley, to resign over the force’s persistently poor handling of pro-Palestine demonstrations in the city.
The row has gained particular traction after police stopped kippah-wearing Gideon Falter, who is chief executive of the Campaign Against Antisemitism, from crossing a road on which a rally was taking place, telling him “You are quite openly Jewish,” and therefore “your presence” might cause a negative “reaction.”
Falter later wrote in The Sunday Times:
By the actions of the Metropolitan Police, it’s not just that central London is a “no-go zone” for Jews, as has been said previously, but a police-enforced Jew-free zone.
The Met’s Mark Rowley has been summoned to an urgent meeting with Mayor Sadiq Khan on Monday, April 22nd—the same day that calls by Jewish leaders for him to quit feature on the front page of The Daily Mail.
