Police planning to arrest anyone supporting Palestine Action at London protest
Police are planning to arrest anyone demonstrating in support of Palestine Action this weekend. The group has been banned under terrorism laws and this weekend a large event protesting against its proscription has been organised by the group Defend Our Juries. A source with knowledge of the police's early planning for this Saturday's event said: 'If they think that by turning up with significant numbers that we can't arrest them for breaking terrorism laws, they need to think again. 'They will be arrested. However we have to do it, they will be arrested for breaking terrorism laws.' The Met is aware of the planned protest this Saturday and is sceptical of claims that thousands could turn up. The force believes that a total in the low hundreds is more likely. Anyone arrested risks a terrorism conviction. At other events that led to mass arrests, the Met has arrested people, confirmed their identities and home addresses and then quickly released them on bail so they can be dealt with later. That tactic was used for an anti-immigration protest in Whitehall last summer and for past Extinction Rebellion protests where scores of people were arrested. Police will be stretched at the weekend as a large separate pro-Palestinian march is also scheduled for Saturday and anti-immigration protests are also expected. The Met's plans will evolve throughout the week, and police chiefs will consider whether the force – Britain's largest – may need to call on mutual aid from others to manage. For the Met, they face dangers from both sides of the debate. Supporters of Palestine Action may accuse them of being heavy handed if they make mass arrests, while those on the right may accuse the Met of going soft if people openly break terrorism laws and are not arrested. A spokesperson for Defend Our Juries denied any plot to overwhelm the police and the courts system, as was reported in the Telegraph on Monday, saying: 'It's great the Telegraph is helping us to spread the word but there are serious inaccuracies in their story: 'First, it's not a 'Palestine Action' campaign. Defend Our Juries is organising the campaign, as they must know since they've seen the briefing document. Given that PA is currently a proscribed organisation that's an important distinction. 'Secondly it's not a 'plot'. Plot implies something underhand and secretive. This is an open and transparent campaign against an unjust law, which violates basic democratic freedoms. All materials, including the action briefing document are available on the website. 'Third, we're not planning to overwhelm the system. The police have a choice whether to arrest people or not. If the police show respect for the law and basic democratic rights, they will leave peaceful protesters be. It's only if they choose to arrest peaceful protestors that they've got a problem, which is on them, not us.'

Nigel Farage hits out at 'cover-up' of alleged rape by Afghan asylum seekers as Reform UK council leader says he 'begged' for release of arrested men's immigration status
Nigel Farage today hit out at a 'cover-up' after two Afghan asylum seekers were charged in connection with the alleged rape of a 12-year-old girl in Nuneaton. The Reform UK leader said it was 'absolutely disgraceful' that information about the men's background was not revealed to the public. It came after George Finch, the Reform leader of Warwickshire County Council, said he had been 'begging' for information about the immigration status of the alleged offenders in Nuneaton to be released. Speaking at a press conference in central London, Mr Farage said the immigration status of those who are charged with alleged offences should be routinely released. He also demanded that those who enter the UK illegally should not be 'free to roam the streets' and 'should be detained ahead of them being deported'. Mr Farage denied that releasing the names, addresses and imigration status of those charged with offences risked unrest on Britain's streets. He claimed that last summer's riots, in the wake of the Southport riots, was caused by the public not immediately being told the status of the attacker. He said this 'led to crazy conspiracy theories spreading online'. Mr Farage spoke this morning as he welomed Rupert Matthews, the police and crime commissioner for Leicestershire, to Reform. Mr Matthews has defected from the Tories to join Mr Farage's party. He has been a police and crime commissioner since 2021, and served as an MEP for the East Midlands for the Conservatives between 2017 and 2019. At the weekend, Warwickshire Police said two men were charged in connection with the alleged rape of a 12-year-old girl in Nuneaton. Ahmad Mulakhil, 23, was arrested on July 26 and charged the next day with rape, according to the force. He appeared at Coventry Magistrates' Court on Monday and has been remanded in custody. Mohammad Kabir, 23, was arrested in Nuneaton on Thursday and charged with kidnap, strangulation and aiding and abetting rape of a girl under 13, the force added. He appeared at Coventry Magistrates' Court on Saturday and has been remanded in custody. Mulakhil and Kabir will both appear at Warwick Crown Court on August 26. Officers are appealing to anyone who was in the Cheveral Street area between 8.30pm and 9.45pm on July 22 and may have seen anything of interest to come forward by calling 101 and quoting incident number 418 of July 22. Warwickshire Police did not deny Mulakhil and Kabir are asylum seekers, as revealed by the Mail On Sunday. In a statement, the force said that once someone is charged with an offence, they follow national guidance, which 'does not include sharing ethnicity or immigration status'. The force said: 'Our neighbourhood officers work every day with local community partners. 'When something significant happens, we brief these partners and local elected officials on the circumstances of the crime, the investigation, the work being undertaken to arrest those responsible and how local people and partners can help a concerned community. 'Where relevant, sensitive information around locations, details of the crime and policing activity to catch offenders can be shared, with a warning that this is sensitive or confidential information and disclosure by those being briefed could affect future court hearings. 'We work to hold offenders to account and will always do everything in our power to present a robust case to the courts and protect the integrity of court proceedings. 'Once someone is charged with an offence, we follow national guidance. This guidance does not include sharing ethnicity or immigration status.'
