At a time when people are grieving and most of the nation is alarmed about antisemitism, it would have been decent and respectful for the organisers of Saturday’s protest against the banning of Palestine Action to postpone it.
However, the organisation called Defend Our Juries has refused a request from the Metropolitan Police to do so. The protest, at which 1,500 people have said they are prepared to be arrested for expressing support for a terrorist organisation, will presumably go ahead.
