  • Prime Minister Keir Starmer supports banning some pro-Palestinian marches that call for the spread of the intifada.

  • Recent stabbings in Golders Green, a London area with a large Jewish population, have intensified calls for government action.

  • Starmer advocates for tighter policing of protest language, condemning slogans like 'globalise the intifada' as unacceptable.

  • The UK raised its security alert level to 'severe' due to threats from Islamist extremism and far-right groups.
  • But when there are chants like 'globalise the intifada', that's completely off limits.
    — Keir Starmer, Britain's Prime Minister, in a BBC interview about pro-Palestinian marches.
