(JEWISH GROUP) Police warn Pro-Palestine march organisers to stay away from synagogue
The Metropolitan Police have told the organisers of an upcoming pro-Palestine march to stay away from a synagogue.
Protesters targeting the BBC were planning to gather outside Broadcasting House in Portland Place on Saturday January 18, before marching through central London.
But Scotland Yard has told the Palestine Solidarity Campaign (PSC) to alter its plans to avoid “serious disruption” to the congregation of a nearby synagogue – and threatened to impose Public Order Act conditions to stop the rally.
The Met said it had “reflected on the views of local community and business representatives, including those of the congregation at a synagogue” before coming to the decision.
