London protests LIVE: Youth Demand to stage pro-Palestine rally after Quaker meeting house arrests
Briefly

A pro-Palestine rally entitled 'Shut It Down For Palestine' is set to occur in central London, organized by the group Youth Demand. This marks the beginning of a series of planned protests throughout April aimed at disrupting normal activities through tactics like swarming and roadblocks. The rally comes in light of recent police interventions, including the arrest of six supporters of Youth Demand at a Quaker meeting. Critics, including the Quakers, have decried the police actions as overly aggressive.
Demonstrators are expected to gather in central London on Tuesday evening for a pro-Palestine rally led by the protest group Youth Demand.
The Quakers in Britain condemned the operation as an aggressive violation, while the protest group said: It's clear that the Government sees Youth Demand as a threat.
