British Prime Minister Rishi Sunak is also under intense pressure from within his own ranks to dismiss the controversial Interior Minister Suella Braverman.

He criticized the supporters of the Palestinians and made unnecessary accusations against them. While criticizing the positions of the London police, he said: while the police always take harsh measures against “right-wing and nationalist” demonstrators and For example, he has never shown mercy to the opponents of the quarantine during the Covid period, but he gives a lot of freedom to the “pro-Palestinian mobs”, according to his description. He accused the undermining of respect for the police in such a volatile time, “deliberately increasing tension among the people” and “encouraging extremists from all sides.”
