London authorities ban al-Quds day march

The Islamic propaganda of al-Quds day was going on in Britain since 2012, but now thankfully, the authorities have banned it:

The British government has banned an end-of-Ramadan protest march through central London, with Police citing “extreme tensions” over the Middle East in the city leading to the risk of “serious public disorder” between protest and counter-protests.

UK Home Secretary [interior minister] Shabana Mahmood has approved a recommendation by the Metropolitan Police to ban the annual Al Quds march through central London. Commencing today, the ban on the march and any related protests including counter-protests will remain in force for one month.

Police say this is the first time a march has been banned in London since 2012, but note there is no law in Britain to prevent a static demonstration, which will be going ahead despite the ban.

Mahmood said in a statement that she was satisfied approving the unusual ban is “necessary to prevent serious public disorder, due to the scale of the protest and multiple counter-protests, in the context of the ongoing conflict in the Middle East” and that she expects to “see the full force of the law applied to anyone spreading hatred and division instead of exercising their right to peaceful protest”.

March organisers say they will challenge the ban in court and intend to go ahead with an Al Quds day protest with a static demonstration.

What if they decide to defy orders and march anyway? That's the problem here, and we have to hope the UK authorities will enforce the ban convincingly, but for all we know, they probably won't. Not that it'd be surprising if that were the case.
