push for an end to the Met Police\u2019s current strategy of refusing to arrest anti-Semitic protestors at Palestine marches, and instead asking social media for help tracking them down after the march has finished.<\/p>\n<p>The Prime Minister wants antisemites arrested immediately at protests, amid plans to make prosecutions for glorifying terrorism easier.<\/p>\n<p>Mr Sunak is preparing a new five-point plan to allow the police to prohibit provocative chants as a condition of allowing the now-weekly pro-Palestine protests to go ahead, and to take into account the \u201ccumulative effect\u201d of weeks of marches when deciding to ban a protest.<\/p>\n<p>The news comes after Lord Walney, the Government\u2019s independent advisor on political violence and disruption, said the \u201cexplosion of attacks on Jews in the UK since 7 October is a national emergency\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>His review recommends an urgent change in the law to give police the powers to ban marches on the grounds of fuelling antisemitic crime.<\/p>\n<p> <strong> READ MORE: <\/strong> <strong>Sadiq Khan&#8217;s &#8216;awful&#8217; statement shows the Met Police is politically

current legislation, Lord Walney explained, the police can only make a judgement to ban a march based on the threat of serious violence or disorder on any given day.<\/p>\n<p>He said: &#8220;They cannot take into account the cumulative effect of the marches as a factor in increasing attacks and intimidation.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Mr Sunak is also set to close loopholes in protest laws, with a new four-point plan that will include:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>New laws to ban protesters claiming on statues, scaffolding and bus stops<\/li>\n<li>Tightening up the current laws around fireworks, smoke bombs and flares<\/li>\n<li>Lowering the threshold at which the police can take a decision to ban a protest<\/li>\n<li>Tightening up the current law around glorifying terrorists, which the police argue is too vague to currently enforce.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Mr Sunak is also hoping to clamp down on protesters chanting \u201cfrom the river to the sea\u201d by working with organisers to set conditions for allowing the marches to go ahead.<\/p>\n<p> <strong> Don&#8217;t miss&#8230; <\/strong> <br \/> <strong>Michael Gove breaks silence after being mobbed by pro-Palestine protesters[LATEST] <\/strong>

arrests of pro-Palestine protesters weren\u2019t made.<\/p>\n<p>145 people were arrested by the Met on Saturday, but they largely consisted of far-right counter-protesters.<\/p>\n<p>After the protest, the Met posted a number of photographs of antisemitic pro-Palestine protesters on their social media feed, asking the public for help identifying them.<\/p>\n<p>The police also failed to act against repeat chants of \u201cfrom the river to the sea\u201d, a slogan used by pro-Palestinian protesters to call for the obliteration of the state of Israel.<\/p>\n<p>Mr Sunak will demand to know why the police didn\u2019t act against marches waving swastikas and dressing up to look like Hamas terrorists.<\/p>\n<p>One woman was allowed to march through central London with a placard bearing the Star of David intertwined with a swastika.<\/p>\n<p>Another man was filmed shouting \u201cHitler knew how to deal with these people\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>A Met Police source told the Times that the police are \u201cnot unaware of the impact of the pro-Palestinian march, but there was a lot of risk of harm elsewhere\u2026 There would have been hundreds more officers who could have potentially intervened if they had not been drawn away\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>They said: \u201cThere was no trespass of the Cenotaph, no one got near it.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Source: <a
