The same Police Force that Welcomed the Nazi Police to London in the 30s is now Defending the Genocidal Israeli State
London's Metropolitan Police do their best to prevent support for
Palestine Action on Sept. 6th
Despite arresting the organisers of the demonstration today, including Tim Crosland, and charging them with being 'terrorists' i.e. organising against the Police State that London is fast becoming, the demonstration against the ban on Palestine Action went ahead as planned.
I got to
the demonstration in Parliament Square just before 1.00 p.m. and stayed till
about 3.00 p.m. I displayed a poster – Genocide
in Palestine – Action Needed Now to see if the Met Police were going to
arrest me, as they have done with others holding the same poster. They didn’t but most of the arrests took
place after I left.
congratulations @metpoliceuk on arresting so many opponents of genocide - be under no illusions what you are supporting - Israel's bombing of a school football match killing at least 30 children

well done Sir Mark Rowley - perhaps you will get a pay rise for such magnificent… https://t.co/YSOAxQmi3v pic.twitter.com/4nzdpk3fmK— Tony Greenstein tonygreenstein.com (@TonyGreenstein) September 7, 2025
There was
though a real buzz and energy at the demonstration and it should be clear, even
to the thick-headed racist who is the Commissioner of the Met, Sir Mark Rowley,
that however many arrests his violent thugs make the demonstrations will
continue.

People should
not be taken in by the claim that all the Police are doing is enforcing the
law. When it comes to rape the offence has virtually been decriminalised. Don’t
take my word. Vera Baird, the Victim’s Commissioner wrote
in her 2021/22 Annual Report:
In my first
annual report in 2020, I made headlines by saying that we were witnessing
the effective decriminalisation of rape. During my subsequent years in post as
Victims’ Commissioner, little has swayed me from that perspective. Despite a long-delayed
end-to-end rape review, various governmental action plans and plenty of
tinkering round the edges, you can’t escape the numbers; they continue to speak
for themselves.
For victims,
reporting rape is effectively a lottery and the odds are rarely in your favour.
In the year to December 2021, there were 67,125 rape offences recorded – an
all-time high. Yet the number of completed rape prosecutions plummeted from
5,190 in 2016-17 to just 2,409 in 2020-21. The numbers of convictions almost
halved (2,689 in 2016/17 compared to 1,409 in 2020/21). Only 5% of rapes that
were given an outcome by the police in the year ending December 2021 resulted
in a charge.

But we know
why the Police deprioritise rape. It is
not seen by many Police as a crime. Not surprising given the number of rapists
in their ranks and the way Wayne Couzens, the murderer of Sarah Everard was
covered for by fellow officers who nicknamed
him ‘the rapist’. The Met still
has not explained why it didn’t act immediately when Couzens exposed
himself in a drive in restaurant two days before.
Likewise
the International
Criminal Court Act 2001 which makes aiding a genocide a crime, has remained
a dead letter as far as the Met is concerned. For the Met to go anywhere near
an Act which makes aiding genocide a crime would be ‘political’.

It is far
easier to crack down on opponents of genocide. We can rely on the British state
– be they politicians, police or judges – to know that relations with United
States takes priority over the death of thousands of people in Gaza.
Even The Times Came Out Against the Ban
I hope to
attend the next demonstration and will do my best to be arrested next time! Have
no doubt that we are winning. Palestine
Action was proscribed, not because it is a terrorist organisation but because
it has been so effective in shutting down Elbit.
Did Yvette Cooper, Britain's new foreign secretary, mislead parliament and the public when rushing to ban Palestine Action?

Internal government documents seen by Declassified suggest she did👇https://t.co/myDK39MVUt
It is also
now very clear from the documents released as part of the attempt to judicially
review the decision to proscribe Palestine Action that Yvette Cooper lied
about the intelligence evidence proving that Palestine Action was a terrorist
group.
We learnt today
that a fourth Elbit factory has been forced
to close in Bristol. This at the same time as that human skunk, Keir
Starmer, ponders
giving Elbit Systems, Israel’s main arms company, a £2 billion contract to train
the British army. One would assume that the British army had no need of
training from Israel in how to commit war crimes but possibly they need a
refresher.

Thanks Tony. Is it not a massive waste of police resources to go to these peaceful protests to arrest people ? My part of the country has a problem with 'county lines' (drug dealing networks). Should police not be focusing on actual serious crime, like that, instead of people's right to protest ?
