London is in an “awful place” with Jews “scared stiff” and police in the capital struggling with ongoing protests prompted by crisis in the Middle East, the London Assembly has heard.
Metropolitan Police Commissioner Sir Mark Rowley told a policing meeting at the Assembly, attended by London Mayor Sadiq Khan, he is “deeply concerned” about the effects of protests on day-to-day local policing and that he may have to look at asking other forces for help.
