Rishi Sunak will hold Sir Mark Rowley accountable for safeguarding remembrance events and keeping the public safe during the Armistice Day march.
Prime Minister Rishi Sunak was accused of ‘cowardice’ for ‘picking a fight’ with the police by Sir Keir Starmer
Sir Mark has resisted calls to try to block the march calling for a ceasefire in the Gaza Strip in London on Saturday. “The Met are operationally independent, it’s the job of the Prime Minister and the Government to hold them to account for their approach.” “But the person the PM needs to hold accountable is his Home Secretary. Picking a fight with the police instead of working with them is cowardice.”
He said organisers of Saturday’s rally have shown “complete willingness to stay away from the Cenotaph and Whitehall and have no intention of disrupting the nation’s remembrance events”. Culture Secretary Lucy Frazer, who is Jewish, called for the force to keep the “very provocative” march “under review”.
