The Mayor of London Sadiq Khan will meet the Met Police Commissioner tomorrow to discuss community relations.
(Subscribe: bit.ly/C4_News_Subscribe)
It comes after a Metropolitan police officer was filmed asking an anti-semitism campaigner to leave a pro-Palestinian protest in London, calling him 'openly jewish'.

Gideon Falter, CEO of hardline pro Israel lobby group CAA and director of JNF which raises money to acquire land for colonial settlements in Palestine - just happened to have “stumbled” across a pro-Palestinian protest in London - with his body guards and film crew in tow.

He is quite within his rights to go wherever he wants to in a democratic country.

It looks to me like this man walked into the area deliberately to try and cause a scene.

[@djiboutian9899]

I was there before the police arrived, his group was walking the opposite way in the middle of the protesters but there was free space on both pavements. His group was not crossing the road like they saying it on the media. Do not forget there was a pro-Israeli protest less than 50 meters away, and his group was walking towards that. To me it looked like he was trying to start something. There was a lot of openly Jewish people marching with us.
