Pro-Palestinian protesters shoot flares at London police
Jerusalem Post ^ | November 25, 2023

Pro-Palestinian protests in London were arrested after the demonstration turned violent on Saturday evening.

Breakaway groups began attacking the police with flares, the Metropolitan Police announced on X. It was also noted that flares had been shot at police in protests over the previous weeks.

In response to the escalating violence, the police have issued a Public Order Act which prevents the continuation of the pro-Palestinian march.

Earlier arrests had also been announced as protesters displayed Nazi symbols and wore Hamas-style headbands, which is criminalized under the Terrorism Act.

...the Metropolitan Police announced on X.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I notice they’ve dropped the “formerly Twitter” explainer.

My guess was that conservative media would be the first to drop it and this fits the pattern.

These people should be rounded up and shipped off to Ireland... The Irish know how to deal with these people.

Years ago I watched a film entitled Children of Men. It is a near-future dystopian tale, centered in London. From time to time throughout the movie were images of vehicles and trucks full of islamists shooting up the street or firing into to the air at random. There were also the sounds of distant street battles and muffled explosions. I turned to my wife and said, “That will be the reality in England soon enough, and here too, if we’re not careful.”

We haven’t been careful, have we?

Obviously more far-right hooligans. Somebody should cluck and wag their finger at them.

Why would anyone ever think that bringing “diversity” to a country is a good thing? It’s not.

It’s called “diversity” for good reason.

“The cops should shoot anyone attempting arson.”
Totally agree. Arson is life-threatening. Off the perp.

I get the feeling that the “Long Peace” is coming to an end.

England Swings by Roger Miller (1965 hit)

England swings like a pendulum do
Bobbies on bicycles, two by two
Westminster Abbey, the tower of Big Ben
The rosy-red cheeks of the little children


Guess things have changed a little.

The movie “London Has Fallen” is also about terrorists causing great havoc in London. This time it’s a Pakistani terrorist mastermind.

More laws prohibiting mayhem are needed.
