So Much for Free Speech: Met Police Ban UKIP 'Mass Deportations' Rally Over Fear of Muslim Anger

It has been a little over a month since U.K. Prime Minister Keir Starmer vowed to protect free speech as part of a trade deal with the U.S.

And Starmer's promise reached its expiration date, as the Metropolitan Police have stopped a planned protest by the United Kingdom Independence Party (UKIP) calling for mass deportations.

The prospect of serious disorder has prompted us to intervene to prevent a protest organised by UKIP from taking place in Tower Hamlets on Saturday.

It was calling for ‘mass deportations’ and had caused significant community concerns.

Here's more:

A Ukip demonstration has been banned from an area with a large Muslim population because of a “realistic prospect of serious disorder”, police say.
The event was initially advertised as a march from Whitechapel station in east London, but later revised to be an assembly in the same area.

It was originally due to take place on Saturday afternoon, according to the Metropolitan Police.
It was part of a series of events across the UK promoted as a “mass deportations tour”, with organisers calling on attendees to “reclaim Whitechapel from the Islamists”, the force said.

Mass Muslim migration has done untold damage to the U.K. The number of rapes and sexual assaults has skyrocketed in the last decade, and those are the ones that are reported.

Authorities routinely harass Jews for simply wearing their religious symbols in public, including the Star of David and the kippah. Meanwhile, pro-Palestinian protesters can run the streets and Muslims can invade public spaces for prayer.
