Political crisis in England in the shadow of West Asian conflicts

– International News – Tasnim News Agency, German newspaper “Stuttgarter Nakhreshten” addressed the political crisis in England in the shadow of the escalation of conflicts in West Asia and wrote: After a peaceful protest march in support of the Palestinians with around 300,000 participants in London on Saturday, political conflict has started again in this country. The British Home Secretary is accused of escalating tensions and inciting right-wing extremists with his extreme stance towards these gatherings.

Renewed tensions between the government and the London police on Sunday after British Prime Minister Rishi Sonak repeated his threat that London’s police commissioner is “responsible” for approving pro-Palestinian protests on Saturday.

Sonak has announced that he wants to hold Sir Mark Rowley, the chief of London’s police, to account this week. Even though the march in central London, where 300,000 people called for a ceasefire in Gaza, was completely peaceful. It was Britain. Demonstrators came from all over the country, including many families with children, to participate in this rally. In this march in the late afternoon, the police did not arrest even one of the participants in the march.

At the same time, on this day, some extremist groups in the gatherings on the occasion of the end of the First World War in London with The police got involved and caused violence that the British Home Secretary tried to link to the supporters of the Palestinians. According to the reports of the government group, many conservative representatives advised the Prime Minister in this situation. They tried to fire their interior minister, Suella Broerman. The moderate conservative party and opposition parties want to replace him. However, a large part of the conservative right also stands by him.

This right-wing politician recently caused controversy with a guest article in “The Times” about the way the police deal with pro-Palestinian protests. He claimed that what he believed to be law-breaking by pro-Palestinian demonstrators was largely tolerated by the police, while right-wing and nationalist activists were dealt with harshly.

Keir Starmer, Labor leader The opposition told reporters that Braverman is fueling tensions and weakening the police when tensions should be reduced. Commemoration of the end of World War I was emphasized on Saturday, but the London police disagreed with this issue and considered protesting against Israel’s crimes in the Gaza Strip as the protesters’ right.
