Two-tier policing? In modern Britain? Of course not! Preposterous suggestion!
https://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/2025/05/23/jewish-protester-arrested-mocking-terrorist-leader/A Jewish protester was arrested by the Metropolitan Police after he briefly held a placard satirising a Hezbollah terrorist leader, The Telegraph can reveal.
The British man, who has asked to remain anonymous for his safety, was detained and charged last September over a cartoon that showed Hassan Nasrallah, the Lebanese terror chief, with a pager and the words “beep, beep, beep”. […]
Following his arrest, in police interview footage obtained by The Telegraph, an officer can be seen repeatedly asking the counter-protester: “Do you think that showing this image to persons protesting who are clearly pro-Hezbollah and anti-Israel that by doing so would stir up racial hatred further than it is already?”
Both the counter-protester and his lawyer, Carl Woolf, specialist criminal solicitor advocate at Woolf Law LLP, were “completely shocked” at this question.
