Violent Attack on Chief Steward Chris Nineham as Police Thugs Attack
I’ve
attended about half the Palestine demonstrations in London and this was the
most repressive and coercive yet. It was clear that the gloves were off as the institutionally corrupt
and institutionally racist
Metropolitan Police saw it as its duty to prevent opponents of genocide from
exercising their right to protest and demonstrate.
As I said yesterday,
the Metropolitan Police took as their pretext for banning a demonstration to
the BBC the lying plaints of Central Synagogue’s neo-Nazi Rabbi Barry Lerer
for whom no amount of Palestinian blood shed will be enough.
The excuse
of disruption to synagogue goers and the unevidenced fears of racist Zionists
was more than enough for the Metropolitan Police to ban any demonstration
outside the BBC which functions as the propaganda arm of British imperialism in
the Middle East.
Almost as
soon as I arrived I saw people being arrested for nothing other than being in
the wrong place. I departed after a couple of hours but later saw the violent attack
on Chris Nineham, the Chief Steward by 10 police.
Despite the
atmosphere of fear and tension caused by the Met’s hostile and aggressive
tactics there was a steely determination to face the bastards down. There was a
large Jewish bloc present, which is of course invisible to the Met because we
are the ‘wrong sort of Jews’ i.e. anti-racist Jews.

Jew 4 Genocide counter-demonstration to Palestine Demonstration 18th January 2025
There was a
small, well-protected Jews for Genocide contingent, with their far-right Christian
supporters well protected behind Police barriers. I attach a few mugshots of
these creeps below.

and I did a joint interview with Crispin Flintoff for Sunday’s show, as did
others. It was good to see comrades, despite the freezing cold.
This was the second unprovoked arrest I witnessed on the Palestine Demonstration 18 January 2025
The
organisers though did not inform people of what they had planned and it
appeared to people that they had no plans. Next time we have to mobilise at the
BBC itself, whatever the Police have in mind and if they blockade the BBC to
prevent us gathering then fine. That is what they should be – blockaded. In
addition we will paralyse Oxford Street and cause commercial disruption and
chaos.
Police Arrest I witnessed
Mobilising
in Whitehall was a bad mistake which should not be repeated since the Police
turned the march into a static demonstration.
Unsurprisingly
the far-right Zionist Campaign Against Anti-Semitism welcomed the police tactics.
