The Telegraph has spoken to two Jewish men who were forced onto a double decker bus by police after waving an Israel flag at today’s rally.

Isaac Grand, 22, a trainee barrister, accused the Met of two-tier policing after he was escorted away by officers as pro-Palestinian protesters chanted “Zionist scum”.

He said: “A young man from the crowd grabbed the flag. We held onto it, they surrounded us, pushing and pushing us. One was covering my entire face with a Palestine flag. Some would say that is assault and harassment.

“I was exercising my right to protest, which seems to be a two-tier system. For some reason the pro-Palestinian protesters are able to commit crimes of assault and harassment against us and the police won’t do anything about it.

“But for some reason when we exercise our rights to wave a flag or say, ‘We support Britain’, that seems to be treated by the Met Police as some assault on them. It’s a perverse system of justice.”

The other man, who asked not to be named, said: “We like Britain... but unfortunately it’s becoming less and less visible for minorities who don’t agree with whatever is woke today.”
