On Wednesday, the University of London Coalition plans a pro-Palestine march through central London, though the Met Police cannot ban the event after failing to identify organizers to request a date change.
Deputy Assistant Commissioner James Harman stated the legal threshold for banning protests is not met because the risk of serious disorder can be managed through conditions rather than prohibition.
Demonstrators must gather at Lincoln's Inn Fields by 12.30pm and follow a prescribed route to Russell Square, finishing by 2pm, with face coverings prohibited and arrests promised for any breach.
Secretary Lucy Powell urged organizers "to show compassion and respect for others by moving it," while SOAS University requested that premises remain safe and inclusive for all students.
The date marks the third anniversary of Hamas attacks that killed about 1,200 people, triggering an assault on Gaza that has killed more than 75,000 Palestinians since October 2023.

It would be like holding a KKK rally on Juneteenth
Idiots!
Or Nazis marching through Skokie, Illinois.
This would be the same police that pretty much shut down a coastal town to prevent any demonstrations against raft-borne ‘newcomers’.
The Caliphate of UKistan is much on the ascendency.
Start holding rallies commemorating Crusader victories.
Maybe they should make it a holiday celebrating the murders. Show videos of the Palestinians hero’s at work slaughtering those young folks. 😠🖕
The date was chosen intentionally and the fact they could not stop tells you how dead England actually is.
Only Muslims would celebrate a heinous act of terrorism.
England really does need to round them up — and ship them out.
Yep, the UK yet again.
As I remember the Blues Brothers scene was to reference the true court victory in which Nazis could march in an area deliberately chosen where aged survivors of the Holocaust and their relatives and supporters would be forced to see the triumph of the marchers.
Good old judges. (spit).
May all who died in the Holocaust, of all faiths, rest in peace.
That is correct.
Today they’d be marching carrying Palestinian flags.
The US recognizes HAMAS as a TERRORIST organization... for obvious reasons. Anyone who gives aid and comfort to a terrorist organization and
~ is naturalized, legal or illegal immigrant should be deported immediately. Remove the privilege to be in the US.
~ For US citizens who give aid and comfort to a terrorist organization the laws should be enforced.
~ Media (including FR, TruthSocial, CBS,NBC,ABC,etc) should educate on HAMAS and its network of lying support organizations in the US.
Wave a British flag and sing the national anthem and see how quickly they can stop that.
The only reason for the organizers to hide from authorities is if they plan mischief. And I'll believe that mask wearing gets an arrest when I see it.
What if it was a pro life march?
