“The Met Police Have Lost The Plot!” | Lord Pickles SLAMS Police Over “Jihad” Protests
Police are unlikely to be given more powers to address chants deemed to be extremist after comments at a Palestine rally over the weekend, the Prime Minister has signalled.
That is despite suggestions from the Metropolitan Police chief that laws may need to be redrawn, amid concerns about gaps in current anti-extremism legislation.
Home Secretary Suella Braverman met on Monday with Sir Mark Rowley, where she had been expected to discuss the force’s handling of a pro-Palestinian protester chanting “jihad”.
UK Special Envoy for post-Holocaust issues Lord Pickles tells Talk Today’s Jeremy Kyle and Nicola Thorp that the police are giving a “permissive license for future violence” by not cracking down on protests.
“The Met Police have lost the plot - I am just amazed at their inaction.”
