ORGANISERS of a pro-Palestine protest planned in central London have insisted it will go ahead despite calls from police and the Home Secretary to delay or cancel.

Protest group Defend Our Juries has organised a demonstration on Saturday in Trafalgar Square, and claimed yesterday: “Cancelling peaceful protests lets terror win”.

The Metropolitan Police has raised concerns about the amount of police resources the protest would divert at a time when “visible reassurance and protective security” is needed across London.
