The Metropolitan Police in London face allegations of a two-tier policing system, favoring pro-Palestinian and Hamas supporters over anti-Hamas protestors during recent protests. The controversy, fueled by social media posts, includes claims of threats to arrest anti-Hamas protestors for holding signs and allowing pro-Hamas chants to go unchecked. The Met Police responded by stating that they police without fear or favor and that officers assessed a flag in question and found it not to be proscribed or unlawful. Despite this, public sentiment remains critical, with many expressing disappointment and anger towards the perceived bias.
