The Met Police have made more arrests, and complicit members of the public shown further aggression towards Youth Demand protesters continuing to boldly take action across London against Israel’s ongoing genocide. However, Youth Demand shows no signs of slowing down. Ahead of an action to call out the BBC for its blatant pro-Israel bias, activists were once again disrupting major roads around the capital.
