In London, protests and clashes have erupted around hotels housing asylum seekers, with confrontations involving police, anti-migrant activists, and left-wing anti-racism groups. The disturbances have occurred in affluent neighborhoods and have led to multiple arrests. Meanwhile, hundreds are preparing for mass arrests in demonstrations opposing the UK government's ban on Palestine Action, a pro-Palestinian group. Activists have announced plans to besiege the Labour Party over its perceived inaction on the Gaza conflict. Criticism has been directed at Labour leader Keir Starmer's government for its handling of the Gaza situation, including revelations that Israeli soldiers have been training in Britain during the Gaza conflict, despite attempts to keep this secret. Additionally, UK spy flights supporting Israel over Gaza continue via private contractors, suggesting an effort by the government to maintain plausible deniability. Leading Jewish figures have urged Starmer to proscribe genocide rather than protest and are set to deliver a letter demanding recognition of Palestinian statehood, a trade and arms embargo, and other measures. The Palestine Action ban has also faced criticism within Labour's highest ruling body.
