UK looking to ban march in support of Palestine
The UK government is groping for an excuse to ban a march in London in support of Palestine and Palestinians.
Instead of overtly banning the march, the justice minister called on
the organizers to cede to the recommendation of the cops, whose
recommendation is (naturally) to cancel it. The difference is so subtle
that I don't see it makes any difference.
The reason given is that the route of the march goes near a memorial
to Britons who died in World War I, where others will meet on that day
for mourning. However, it seems that the march stays two miles away
from that place.
