British Palestinians and Arabs call for 'equal protection' from Starmer




Prominent British Palestinians and Arabs have told Prime Minister Keir Starmer “our marches in London are not spaces of hate”, as they call for “equal protection” ahead of events marking the 78th anniversary of the Nakba on Saturday.

The Nakba 78 march for Palestine will take place in London on Saturday, with a far-right “Unite the Kingdom” rally led by Tommy Robinson planned for the same time. 

London’s Metropolitan Police has warned that it is preparing for violence and has drafted in more than 4,000 officers for the events.

In a letter, the group of British figures from Palestinian and wider Arab communities called on Starmer to provide “equal protection” during the demonstrations. 

They warned of a “growing sense of fear and anxiety” among British Arabs and Palestinians, some of whom feel as though equal attention is not being provided to the safety and security of their communities.
