Firstly, I feel for those who went to the Cenotaph in Whitehall on Armistice Day (Saturday 11th November) to quietly pay their respects to the war dead, who then found themselves having to contend with the antics of a mob claiming to be there to 'defend' the monument.
I watched the Unherd video on the protest. Freddie and Flo seemed to think that the vast majority of the protesters were religious Muslims bussed in from the North. Only very few were traditionally British-looking. I found that very hard to believe, but as I wasn't there either I haven't got a clue. It's just fascinating that so many are suddenly terrified of Islamists again, after having a few years break from that particular fear...
I watch UKCOLUMN who have sent representatives and independent journalists to the Palestine marches, it makes interesting viewing. I recommend giving them some of your time.
