London, United Kingdom - September 06, 2025 Video recorded by Daniel Fooks on September 6, 2025, shows police detaining protesters during a mass demonstration. The protest was held against the UK government’s ban on Palestine Action, a pro-Palestinian group designated as a terrorist organization. According to the Metropolitan Police, more than 890 people were arrested, the largest number of detentions from a single protest to date. Daniel Fooks wrote: "Going to be a long night. Still loads to be arrested." Critics denounced the ban as an attack on free speech and civil liberties, emphasizing that the demonstration had been peaceful. The sweeping arrests come amid heated debates over the UK’s foreign policy and its role in the Gaza conflict. Concerns have been raised about the proportionality of the police response and its implications for democratic norms. This event reflects a broader pattern of unrest and public mobilization in response to perceived injustices, recalling large-scale demonstrations such as those following George Floyd’s murder in 2020, which triggered widespread civil turmoil in Minneapolis.
