London is bracing itself for a weekend of pro-Palestinian protests as well as demonstrations against migrants being housed in hotels in the city. The Met Police is warning of a busy period of simultaneous protests and events requiring a significant policing presence. They will include a protest where demonstrators intend to intentionally break the law by declaring support for Palestine Action, which has been proscribed as a terrorist group by the UK government. The organisation is currently mounting a legal challenge to that decision.
