I have criticised the Met for their handling of the Hate Marches in London over the past six months. That is the fault of the people who run the Met not individual policemen and women. I am full of admiration for the courage of individual officers as shown yesterday in Hainault.

Here's how it often works.

Hamas issues unevidenced claim libeling Israel
