I am so shocked, one about how the poppy sellers were treated and nothing was done and also how the police decide that our national flags are inflammatory. Suella was right, two tier policing has to go. The met needs to get their priorities right.
This is so true Ada. It didn’t occur to me that the Union Flag 🇬🇧 is treated with contempt and derision but the Palestine flag 🇵🇸 in the days after the worst pogrom since the Holocaust is seen as a symbol of liberation. It’s possible to have genuine concerns about the West Bank but also love the UK and support Israel 🇮🇱 after atrocities.
Does this come down to the over simplistic Oppressor/Oppressed narrative?
