Sunak Demands Accountability for Allowing Pro-Palestinian March in London

UK Prime Minister Rishi Sunak has criticized the timing of a pro-Palestinian march set to take place on Armistice Day in London, calling it "provocative and disrespectful." However, the Metropolitan Police chief, Sir Mark Rowley, has rejected calls to ban the demonstration, stating that it would be a "last resort." The organizers have resisted pressure to postpone the protest and have assured that they will stay away from the Cenotaph and Whitehall, with no intention of disrupting remembrance events. Sunak has vowed to hold the Met Police chief accountable for ensuring the safety of remembrance events while expressing his view that the marches are disrespectful. Labour leader Sir Keir Starmer accused the prime minister of "picking a fight" with the police over the planned demonstration.
