The posters - seen here after being torn down - had been put up to raise awareness of the plight of Hamas kidnap victims A previous video from Oxford Street showed a woman ripping down a poster of Ariel, a four-year-old boy who was kidnapped from a kibbutz.
'In particular, I believe that the hostility directed towards our Jewish communities, the calls for Jihad, the ostentatious indifference to the victims of terrorism, the aggressive chanting by mobs brandishing placards of hate, and the odious people ripping down posters of missing children, do not reflect our values as a nation.
'I think it's right people want to be able to draw attention to that and that's something that is entirely understandable.' The Hamas-run Gaza health ministry said yesterday that 6,546 Palestinians have been killed in Israeli air strikes. The list also includes playwright Sir Tom Stoppard, peer Lord Owen, scientist Professor Richard Dawkins, Countdown presenter Rachel Riley, Tory MP Sir Jacob Rees-Mogg, former spy chief Sir Richard Dearlove and author Simon Sebag Montefiore.
