Suella Braverman has criticised the Metropolitan Police over “playing favourites” with protesters as she slammed Britain’s most senior officer.
The Home Secretary clashed with Sir Mark Rowley, the Met commissioner following his decision to allow Saturday’s pro-Palestinian march to go ahead.
Braverman also shared concerns about weekly pro-Palestininan protests which she claims are being used by Islamic extremists in a bid to dominate London.
She accuses senior police officers of being "biased" on their policing of protests and implement "double standards" by taking a softer approach towards left-wing groups such as Black Lives Matter.
Earlier this week, Rowley said the threshold of serious disorder required to ban an Armistice Day protest in London was not met.
Braverman has urged the Met not to take a soft-touch approach over the course of the weekend amid criticism of police management during rallies over the last month.
Writing in The Times said the public will “expect to see an assertive and proactive approach to any displays of hate, breaches of conditions and general disorder”.
Rishi Sunak had also issued a stark message to Rowley, warning that he would be held “accountable” if the protests caused any disruption of Remembrance commemorations.
However, after calling him to an emergency meeting the Prime Minister said Rowley had provided “reassurances that the police are taking every step necessary” to prevent protests disrupting Remembrance services.
Sunak said: “It’s welcome that the police have confirmed that the march will be away from the Cenotaph and they will ensure that the timings do not conflict with any Remembrance events.
"There remains the risk of those who seek to divide society using this weekend as a platform to do so.”
Yvette Cooper, Labour’s shadow home secretary, said: “Suella Braverman is out of control.
"Her article tonight is a highly irresponsible, dangerous attempt to undermine respect for police at a sensitive time, to rip up operational independence & to inflame community tensions.
"No other Home Secretary of any party would ever do this.”
