MPs react to Braverman’s criticism of police over protests
Suella Braverman has provoked a strong reaction from MPs after accusing police of “playing favourites” with pro-Palestinian protesters.
Writing in The Times, the home secretary said aggressive right-wing protesters are met with a stern response by officers while "pro-Palestinian mobs" are "largely ignored, even when clearly breaking the law".
Downing Street has disowned the article, saying it was not cleared by Number 10.
Prime Minister Rishi Sunak is facing calls from opposition parties to sack Ms Braverman over the "irresponsible" and "divisive" remarks which they say fan the risk of unrest on Armistice Day.

Columbia University witnessed fresh unrest as pro-Palestinian protesters occupied Butler Library, prompting the university to summon the NYPD. Several demonstrators were arrested for trespassing after ignoring dispersal warnings. Tensions soared after the Trump administration pulled $400M in funding over antisemitism claims and began visa reviews of protesters. Secretary of State Marco Rubio confirmed efforts to deport international demonstrators. Critics say the administration is using immigration and anti-terror laws to silence student dissent. Columbia leadership condemned the unrest, calling it a disruption of academic order.
