Please no pro Palestine marches tomorrow

The police and others have called out in the hope that there will be no pro Palestine marches tomorrow. They are stretched and say it will divert resources from trying to protect the Jewish people following the terrorist attack yesterday.

I agree. No march tomorrow AIBU?

There were some yesterday I believe.

Shocking.

QuietlyFrench · 03/10/2025 15:16

There was one in Manchester. Staggering really.

The Home Secretary has also asked for no marches above

There was one in Central Station in Glasgow yesterday

YouveGotNoBloodyIdea · 03/10/2025 15:18

they were not only marching in Brighton last night, they were dancing in the street. Sickening.

This has to stop.

PreciousTatas · 03/10/2025 15:18

Anyone who attends one tomorrow will be showing themselves up as a nasty piece of work. No excuses anymore, even for the useful idiots.

Appalling that one went ahead in Manchester hours after the attack it's ilk had made inevitable.

YANBU, but you're giving the pally mob too much credit - they'll be out in even more force imo.

HappyGolmore2 · 03/10/2025 15:19

We have the right to peaceful protest and freedom of speech, regardless of how you feel about the cause, so marches should go ahead.
Trying to use hate incidents to shut down freedom of expression is disgraceful.

Not even a pause at all? No self reflection? I walked past one before and it was all chanting of rally songs for Palestinian like free Palestine and globalise the intifada. No mention of getting rid of the terrorists or singing about freeing the hostages though. Not Jewish but it felt intense

terrorist attack in Manchester synagogue, 2 people dead
"Hey babe, grab my palestine flag!"
Anti-semitism alive and well in the UK!

SriouslyWhutNow · 03/10/2025 15:23

YANBU. Sadly a bunch of zealots will be along any minute now to tell you why they absolutely have to march and how they’re not antisemitic—no honestly they’re not—but that they just have to show their support for Palestine. But they’re just so very sad for what happened in Manchester too, y’know (they just refuse to realise how their actions on and offline contribute to an atmosphere that emboldens people like that).

Hear hear!

It sickens me that people march and protest for a far off land and do so in these isles - and the powers-that-be allow them, not only to intimidate, but fly a foreign flag under which terrorists rule. One of their terrorists has only just committed murder on these shores. Others have done so, previously.

Please use this time to chant no to terrorism then as well? Get rid of terrorists? Free the hostages? No? Peace for all maybe?

Please, please don't sing globalise the intifada and from the river to the sea..... (eradicate Israel as it means) etc etc maybe just peace for all?

There's a genocide happening. People have the right to express there feelings about that, regardless of what else is going on in the world.
It is possible to abhor both the murders in Manchester and the genocide happening in Gaza, simultaneously.

WhineAndWine1 · 03/10/2025 15:25

Agree with @HappyGolmore2. You can find what happened yesterday abhorrent and be totally disgusted with what is happening in Gaza. I have every right to go and protest the genocide that is happening in front of our eyes

PraisebetoGod · 03/10/2025 15:25

Anyone supporting globalisation of the intifada is a terrorist supporter.

I think the time for these marches is over . No cause outweighs national security and whilst there are muderous people out there it’s time to calm all this down .

Why are they so blind? Can they not see the damage they do? Why don't they care that this encourages people to hit out, shout out, be unkind, kill Jewish people? Spit at Jewish people? Shout free Palestine to Jewish people in the UK? That's just hatred, nothing else.
