London has become a “no-go zone for Jews” during weekend pro-Palestinian marches, the government’s counter-extremism commissioner has said.
Robin Simcox also urged ministers to “be willing to accept higher legal risk” when tackling extremism.
Rishi Sunak’s spokesman said the PM took concerns of extremism “extremely seriously” and noted a rise in both antisemitism and anti-Muslim hatred.
March organisers said Jewish people did not need to be scared of the events.
Writing in the Telegraph, Mr Simcox said Mr Sunak had been right to point to an increase in extremist disruption.

The open support for terrorism is not just historical. By 13:53 on October 7, the PSC social media channels had begun to post excuses for the Hamas atrocities even as they were still unfolding. By 16:00 they had already organised a ‘mass protest’, calling for an emergency demo to ‘stand with Palestine’. At this point in time, social media was awash with the Hamas horror videos, over a dozen Israeli communities were still in Hamas control – and Israel was reeling in shock as it counted its dead. PSC branches swiftly moved into action. Manchester PSC held a demo on Sunday 8th. With big signs proclaiming that ‘Manchester supports Palestinian resistance’, they marched through the streets. On the website they put out a statement on the 7 October that spoke of the ‘heroic’ actions of Hamas, claiming it is their ‘duty’ to give ‘unconditional support’ the attacks.David Collier
