Information reaching Kossyderrickent has it that Pro-Palestine hate mob shut down Tower Bridge in London.
Pro-Palestine protesters forced police to close Tower Bridge this evening as they let off flares and blocked traffic in demand of a ceasefire in Gaza.
Activists were seen waving Palestinian flags and carrying a banner that read ‘Save Gaza, Ceasefire Now’ as they marched across the bridge.
Drummers appeared to lead the march, pounding out a beat as protesters clapped and chanted ‘free, free, Palestine’.
Today’s march comes as the Conservative Party suspended their former deputy chairman from the parliamentary party, after he refused to apologise for saying London Mayor Sadiq Khan was controlled by Islamists.
Khan, the first Muslim to be mayor of London and a member of the opposition Labour Party, is a frequent target of Conservative criticism for his handling of policing in Britain’s capital, including regular pro-Palestinian marches.
At 6.26pm, the force added the bridge had “reopened”.
A spokesperson for City of London police confirmed to The Sun that the bridge was closed for approximately 45 minutes.
They added that all protesters have been cleared of the area and it’s therefore unlikely that the bridge will be re-closed.
No injuries or arrests have been reported.
