PM urges students not to join pro-Palestinian protests on 7 October

Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer has urged students not to join pro-Palestinian protests on Tuesday, the second anniversary of the 7 October Hamas attack on Israel, warning of "rising antisemitism on our streets".

Sir Keir said it was "un-British to have little respect for others" by staging demonstrations on the anniversary, adding protests had been used by some as a "despicable excuse to attack British Jews".

The UK is seeing heightened security to protect Jewish communities after last week's deadly attack on a Manchester synagogue.

Students from London universities took part in a joint march, while rallies took place in Edinburgh, Belfast and Sheffield.
