Hundreds arrested at Palestine protest outside Labour conference
Original: While genocidal maniacs go free, those opposing genocide are arrested yet again in Burnham’s Britain! “IN PICS: hundreds
Police arrested hundreds of demonstrators at a Palestine protest held outside the Labour Party conference in the UK. Critics, including left-wing commentators, condemned the mass arrests, arguing that people opposing the war in Gaza are being criminalised while those responsible for it face no consequences. Some criticism is directed at Greater Manchester mayor Andy Burnham over policing of the event.
Why now: The large scale of arrests at a protest outside Labour's conference has reignited debate over policing of pro-Palestine demonstrations in the UK.
