The Torriano Meeting House in Kentish Town was vandalized by a lone individual just before a meeting of the Camden Friends of Palestine. Posters branding peace campaigners as criminals were affixed to the front door, which was also glued shut. Emily Johns, treasurer of the house, noted this act has significant financial implications for the volunteer-run center. The incident underscores rising tensions within the community, with accusations of terrorism directed at peaceful advocates, contributing to an atmosphere of fear and anxiety.
Attacks on community centres are attacks on the community. This will cost our volunteer-run and funded group an enormous amount of money to repair.
He was accusing the Friends of being terrorists and Torriano Meeting House of supporting terrorism which is just nonsense. This makes people frightened.
We want to support peace groups in the community. That they are working to have a world without war is important.
Somebody put superglue in the lock but the staff member managed to escape while the glue was still wet.
