Mayor says Braverman 'irresponsible' on protests
The Home Secretary has written an article attacking the Metropolitan Police for its handling of pro-Palestinian protests. Writing in The Times, Suella Braverman accused the force of applying a "double standard" to its policing of protests. She also claimed aggressive right-wing protesters were "rightly met with a stern response", while "pro-Palestinian mobs" were "largely ignored".
Ms Braverman's comments have been condemned by former police officers and MPs. The Prime Minister says he didn't clear the article.
The Mayor of London - the person responsible for overseeing the Met - says the article is "inaccurate, irresponsible, and stokes divisions".
