A small pro-Israel protest was held outside the “Celebrate Palestine” festival at SOAS today, but it wasn’t long before the organisers complained to security who called the police to have the protest removed.
While the pro-Israel protesters were outside arguing their case to remain, inside Lowkey was rapping to the students about Israel being an apartheid, supremacist, colonialist state.
Back outside the police eventually relented after realising how ridiculous it would be to remove a peaceful, static protest.
The protesters then moved on to Ahava in Covent Garden outside of which an anti-Israel mob had congregated for their usual Saturday hate-fest.
Well done to Stand With Us UK which produced the placards, leaflets and very eye-catching “We support a two-state solution” stickers.
