THE Prime Minister has said it is “un-British” for Pro-Palestine protests to take place on the anniversary of the harrowing October 7 attacks.
Today marks two years since 1,200 people were killed and 251 were taken hostage in southern Israel.

The bloodbath lunged four nations – Israel, Palestine, Lebanon and Iran – into war, killing tens of thousands and marking a historic shift in the Middle East.
Experts have branded the spiralling situation in the Middle East as “one of the biggest human rights crises in the world right now” – triggered by the October 7 atrocity.
Today, protests are planned in major cities across the UK – but Keir Starmer blasted it as a “despicable excuse to attack British Jews”.
The PM has urged organisers to “demonstrate humanity”, especially after last week’s attack, in which two Jewish victims were killed.
