London has seen regular pro-Palestine marches since the latest war in Gaza began in 2023, and further demonstrations are planned for later this month.

But ministers have faced calls to ban the marches in the context of recent attacks on the Jewish community – including the stabbings in Golders Green on Wednesday. Protesters have been accused of anti-Semitic chanting or holding anti-Semitic signs.

Home Office minister Alex Davies-Jones told Times Radio this morning that the marches have been 'hijacked' by people looking to sow division in the UK.

Terror watchdog Jonathan Hall has called for a moratorium on the demonstrations following the latest terror attack, saying they had 'incubated' antisemitism.

Sir Keir Starmer has backed the prosecution of those chanting 'globalise the intifada' during protests, and the Met Police is reviewing whether future marches can happen.

Now you can have your say in the Daily Mail's latest poll – should they be banned?

In yesterday's poll, Mail readers were asked: 'Is anti-Semitism out of control in Britain, as Israel claims?' Out of more than 6,000 votes, 88 per cent of you said 'yes' and 12 per cent said 'no'.
