The Home Secretary also characterised alleged reports that organisers of Saturday's march were linked to Hamas as 'disturbingly reminiscent of Ulster'
Home Secretary Suella Braverman has used Northern Ireland as a point of comparison as she characterised pro-Palestinian demonstrations planned for the UK on Armistice Day as "hate marches".
Writing in The Times, Mrs Braverman said "hate marchers" intend to use the Armistice Day protest as a "show of strength".The Home Secretary also characterised alleged reports that organisers of Saturday's march were linked to Hamas as "disturbingly reminiscent of Ulster"."They are an assertion of primacy by certain groups - particularly Islamists - of the kind we are more used to seeing in Northern Ireland.
Responding to the article, Labour MP Jess Philips said: "Braverman makes our country less safe, not satisfied with inflaming tensions in London she thought she'd also light a match under Northern Ireland relations. No right thinking Prime Minister would stand by her let alone approve her copy."
