Rishi Sunak calls for police clampdown on Armistice Day anti-war ‘Million Man March’
So much for free speech in the UK, then.
Rishi Sunak has called for the Home Secretary and police to spit on everything the servicepeople commemorated on Remembrance Day died to defend.
He has been informed that, after 500,000 people marched in support of the innocent people of Gaza who are being murdered on a daily basis by Israeli war crimes last Saturday (October28), another march is being arranged, to take place on November 11, which it is hoped a million people will attend.

And here’s Sunak’s response:

For those who can’t read images, he said:
“To plan protests on Armistice Day is provocative and disrespectful, and there is a clear and present risk that the Cenotaph and other war memorials could be desecrated, something that would be an affront to the British public and the values we stand for.
“The right to remember, in peace and dignity, those who have paid the ultimate sacrifice for those freedoms must be protected.
“I have asked the Home Secretary to support the Met Police in doing everything necessary to protect the sanctity of Armistice Day and Remembrance Sunday.”
What utter – insulting – twaddle.
Sunak is disrespecting every single man or woman who died in war with those words, and here’s why:
Armistice Day and Remembrance Day commemorate people who died to protect our freedoms – including the freedom to protest against war.
The honoured dead who we remember on those days fought to end war, and prohibiting an event calling for the end of a war is the gravest insult to their memory that anybody could commit – especially a serving UK prime minister.
He suggests that the cenotaph and other war memorials may be desecrated, and that preventing the possibility of this should rank higher than permitting the British people to express their right to free speech. This alone contradicts the very reason those memorials exist; it denies their reason for existing in the first place.
If the safety of a piece of rock is more important to Sunak than the freedom – the right to free speech – of the British people, then he is spitting on the graves of everybody commemorated by that rock, who died to protect that freedom.
If their purpose has been forgotten – as he seems to have done – then perhaps they should be torn down altogether and replaced with something that makes the original purpose more clear – even to the likes of Sunak.
He mentions “those freedoms” for which “those who have paid the ultimate sacrifice” fought – but doesn’t even bother to admit what they are, because if he did, he would not be able to justify the draconian response he is planning.
I fear that he is being deliberately provocative. But if he wants a confrontation, it will only show that the UK’s leaders have lost their way and must be removed.

Also, why is it being forgotten that Zionist terrorists killed British soldiers in their campaign to force Britain to abandon Palestine to their tender mercies?
Don,t the soldiers who died when Zionists blew up the King David Hotel count for the purposes of commemoration?
We are urged to remember deaths in two World Wars, as well as numerous colonial wars ever since.
But the victims of the Zionist murder gangs are conveniently forgotten.
I wonder if there are any remaining relatives of the three British sergeants, kidnapped and held hostage by a Zionist gang, then cruelly hanged when the British authorities didn’t respond to the murderers demands.
Just who is being disrespectful towards the war dead when British politicians refuse to find anything even remotely immoral in the Zionist project?
Organisers of Million March for Palestine issued a swift rebuttal concerning carpet salesman Sunak’s latest fascist lies! The organisers said they will not be protesting near the Cenotaph and neither will the protest action commence until after 11.00 am.
However carpet salesman Sunak is inciting violence against anyone who protests against fascist Israeli government. Carpet salesman Sunak conveniently forgets little England supposedly waged war on Germany because they opposed fascism. Innumerable women, children and men too were killed during WW II as a result. Now fascist Israeli government are committing the same war crimes as the Nazis inflicted on any woman or man who opposed their sadistic ideology!
We are living in a fascist dictatorship and still too many individuals refuse to recognise this fact!
Mind your own business, Sunak!
750 British soldiers and Police were killed in Palestine in the 1930s and 1940s, nearly all by Zionist terrorists who were using violence to bring about a Jewish state of Israel.
They included men killed when Zionist terrorists blew up the Jerusalem Officers Club and then the King David Hotel(90 died in the hotel blast including many civilians).
As revenge for the execution of their own men, one Zionist gang kidnapped two British sergeants and hanged them , attaching a booby trap to the bodies so that the British Officer cutting them down was badly injured.
They gave their lives so that Palestine would not be taken over by an influx of European Zionists who were planning to erase Palestine from the map.
Britain eventually shrugged and just handed it over to the Zionists.
So why should a pro-Palestine march be regarded as ruining the commemoration of British soldiers who were killed in various colonial conflicts?
British politicians who say they are “standing by Israel” are the ones who are spitting on the memory of so many British soldiers who were killed by the terrorists who created Israel.
If anything, the pro-Palestine march should be welcomed to march past the Cenotaph so that we can all express sympathy for the soldiers who died fighting Zionism.
