Chants of “intifada revolution” rang out and a smoke bomb was set off at a large pro-Palestinian demonstration in central London on Saturday.

The latest pro-Palestinian march in the capital had been expected to attract unusually large numbers. The date marks the 76th anniversary of the “Nakba” – the word, meaning “catastrophe”, used by Palestinians to describe the events surrounding the establishment of the state of Israel.

A static counter-demonstration in Piccadilly, organised by the Enough is Enough group, was due to meet the main march, which started near the BBC’s central London headquarters.

    I wonder if those British people supporting Palestine movement have already forgotten about the terrible terror attacks that happened in their own country?! And yes, they weren’t committed by Jewish people.

  • Most of these people should not even be in GB. I resent my taxmoney being wasted on the police having to attend these rallies.
