Ten people, including Piers Corbyn, Jeremy Corbyn’s brother, have been charged with public order offences following a pro-Palestinian march in central London.

The protesters were arrested after allegedly breaching conditions that had been imposed on the gathering by the Metropolitan Police.

Thousands of supporters of the Palestine Solidarity Campaign (PSC) had been planning to march past the BBC in protest at the corporation’s coverage of the Israel Gaza conflict.

But police refused to allow the march amid concerns that it would pass close to a synagogue on the Sabbath.

On Friday it was agreed that rather than a march, protesters would hold a static rally in Whitehall.

But more than 70 arrests were made on Saturday afternoon when people allegedly breached the conditions.
