This is the London, and the Britain, that British authorities have made. Now all they have to do is live in it.

“WATCH: Pro-Palestinian Mob Attacks Car on the Streets of London,” by Kurt Zindulka, Breitbart, May 23, 2021:

Brexit leader Nigel Farage declared that “London in 2021 is not a safe place to be” following footage emerging of pro-Palestinian activists attacking a car during a demonstration against Israel on Saturday.

London’s Metropolitan Police Service (MPS) said that the National Demonstration for Palestine passed without “any significant incidents”. However, in a statement, the Met did corroborate footage shared online of a band of Palestinian flag-waving thugs attacking a car that was passing by.

MyLondon reported on the incident, and the video was also shared on social media by Vivian Aisen, a diplomat and the director of public diplomacy at the Embassy of Israel in London.

Ms Aisen wrote on Twitter in the post accompanying the footage: “Crazy people walking free in the streets of London! #Hamas #ISIS #MuslimBrotherhood #Palestinian Islamic Jihad #Hezbollah #Iran: they are all the same. Jihad led ideologies, fighting the Western civilisation and the Judeo-Christian ethics. We need to fight back!”

Scotland Yard added that officers were also assaulted with makeshift missiles during the protest.

In total, police arrested seven men during the anti-Israel demonstration, with three arrested for violent disorder, two for going equipped to steal, one homophobic public order offence, and one racially aggravated public order offence.

Following hours of speeches in Hyde Park from Muslim and leftist activists, as well as from far-left Labour Party MPs including former leader Jeremy Corbyn, John McDonnell, Naz Shah, and Zarah Sultana, groups of activists began roaming the streets of the British capital.

“Damage was caused to a passing car and some missiles were thrown at officers. Efforts to engage with the group proved unsuccessful,” the Met said.
