London police do ‘nothing’ to help Jewish man threatened by protesters

Sky News host Rita Panahi has slammed police officers in London who did nothing to help a Jewish man being threatened and abused by pro-Palestine protesters. In a now-deleted statement, the Metropolitan Police claimed people are intentionally trying to be “provocative” standing near protesters. “In recent weeks we've seen a new trend emerge, with those opposed to the main protests appearing along the route to express their views,” the statement read. “The fact that those who do this often film themselves while doing so suggests they must know that their presence is provocative, that they're inviting a response and that they're increasing the likelihood of an altercation. “They are also making it much more likely officers will intervene.” Ms Panahi hit out at “two-tier policing” in place where the “leftist ideology” has taken over the police force. “That sees the activist class held to a very different standard and that's true not just for these anti-Israeli protesters but those taking part in global warming protests, BLM or whatever the leftist cause is that week,” she said.
