PM 'appalled' at Met Police 'openly Jewish' exchange - as Sadiq Khan to hold urgent meeting with Met chief

Met Police cannot sack officers by removing vetting clearanc

The Metropolitan Police cannot dismiss officers by removing their vetting clearance, the High Court has ruled. The decision comes after Sergeant Lino Di Maria successfully mounted a legal challenge, supported by the Metropolitan Police Federation, after having his vetting removed over sexual assault allegations, which he denies. Met Commissioner Sir Mark Rowley said the ruling on the law "has left policing in a hopeless position". “We now have no mechanism to rid the Met of officers who were not fit to hold vetting – those who cannot be trusted to work with women, or those who cannot be trusted to enter the homes of vulnerable people.

Houthis Threaten Big Attack Over Trump's Gaza Cleanout Plan | 'Worried About Jews? Move Them To U.S'

Houthi leader Abdul-Malik al-Houthi has issued a stark warning against U.S. President Donald Trump’s plan to relocate Palestinians from Gaza, calling it a "criminal" scheme to empty Palestine. In a fiery speech, he threatened military intervention, including missile and drone strikes, if the plan is enforced by force. Al-Houthi provocatively suggested that if the U.S. is concerned about Jewish welfare, it should relocate them to America instead. The Houthis have already launched over 40 missiles and 320 drones at Israel and vow to resume attacks if Trump’s plan moves forward. #HouthiThreats #TrumpGazaPlan #MiddleEastCrisis #PalestineConflict #IsraelIranTensions #USForeignPolicy #MilitaryEscalation #Geopolitics #RegionalWar #GazaDisplacement #DroneStrikes #MissileThreat #ArabResistance #BreakingNews #GlobalTensions Also Read First Israeli Hostages Released from Hamas Reunite with Their Mothers After Over 15 Months Apart :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/first-israeli-hostages-reunite-with-mothers-in-israel-011-4048195.html?ref=DMDesc Israel-Hezbollah Ceasefire Remains Intact Despite Violations and Tensions :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/fragile-israel-hezbollah-ceasefire-holding-despite-violations-011-4033663.html?ref=DMDesc Iran-Israel Conflict: Amid Escalating Tensions, Here's A Look At Tehran's Fire Power :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/iran-israel-conflict-amid-escalating-tensions-heres-a-look-at-tehrans-fire-power-3970939.html?ref=DMDesc

Charity: Hate crime rise appalling but not surprising

The rise in both anti-Semitic and Islamophobic hate crime is "really appalling but not a surprise", says the director of policy at the Community Security Trust, a charity whose mission it is to provide safety to the UK Jewish community. Dr Dave Rich adds that the "enormous" increase has been apparent on social media and offline, exacerbated by the Hamas attack on Israel on October 7th 2023, the subsequent, ongoing war in the Middle East and the anti-immigration riots that occurred in the UK over the summer.
