Today, Friday August 15, Outside Downing Street, a man holding a banner that read "I Support Palestine in Acton" – a deliberate misspelling of "Palestine Action" – led to confusion as police initially believed he was supporting the banned group. The officers were about to make an arrest until they realized the subtle twist on the wording. The mix-up caused amusement among the gathered onlookers, who watched the situation unfold with laughter.

He also had a banner which read, "the polite are idiots" which was a deliberate misspelling of 'the police are idiots'

In the footage, he also called Kier Starmer a "genocidal maniac"

He was attacked verbally by an onlooker who took offence.
