A Met police officer threatened to arrest a man for "breaching the peace" at a pro-Palestine march as he was "quite openly Jewish". The man - who was wearing a kippah on his head - was trying to cross a road in the Aldwych area of London when he was stopped by police.A video shared by Campaign Against Antisemitism from the march last weekend showed the man saying to the officer: "I don't want to stay here, I want to leave.
It's intimidating enough and now look at the number of police that are around her... I'm just a Jew in London trying to cross the road."I've been told repeatedly by the Met that these are completely safe for Jews, that I should have nothing to worry about and yet here I find myself in this bubble. "This guy has just been shouting at me and shoving me because I want to cross the road.
