Hate speech and support for terrorist organisations were prominent at a rally in London on Sunday to mark the annual Al quds (Jerusalem) day.
A few hundred people marched down Regent Street, behind the Palestinian and Hezbollah terror flag, before sitting down at the junction with Oxford Street.
One speaker then blamed the devastating Grenfell Tower fire, which has left at least 79 people dead, on Israel supporters. Addressing the crowd at Grosvenor Square, he said: “Many innocents were murdered by Theresa May’s cronies – many of which are supporters of Zionist ideologies. Some of the biggest corporations who are supporting the Conservative Party are Zionists. They are responsible for the murder in Grenfell. The Zionist supporters of the Tory Party.”

Hezbollah and Palestinian supporters staged a sit-down protest brought part of central London to a standstill. Many carried banners with messages including “Boycott Israel”, “Freedom for Palestine” and “Zionism = racism”.
Zionist conspiracy theories were in full flow with Zionist Federation highlighting a number of outreagouse hate-filled claims:
