Braverman discusses rolling back civil liberties for people who wish to wave a Palestinian flag in 'support of terror'.

And of course, no mention of waving Israeli flags in 'support of Apartheid'”.
Braverman, who is a member of UK Conservative Party, wrote in her letter that “Of course, it is not just explicit pro-Hamas symbols and chants that are cause for concern. I would encourage police to consider whether chants such as “From the river to the sea, Palestine will be free” should be understood as an expression of a violent desire to see Israel erased from the world, and whether its use in certain contexts may amount to a racially aggravated section 5 public order offence.

“Nor is it acceptable to drive through Jewish neighbourhoods, or single out Jewish members of the public, to aggressively chant or wave pro-Palestinian symbols at. Where harassment is identified, I would encourage the police to take swift and appropriate enforcement action,” added the British Home Secretary.
Braverman’s letter followed Prime Minister Rish Sunak’s remarks that supporters of Hamas in the UK would be “held to account” in the aftermath of Saturday’s deadly attack.
