🚨 BREAKING: The Golders Green terror attack suspect is called Essa Suleiman He is a Somali translator who has a history of violence, including stabbing two police officers and a police dog in 2008

BREAKING Sir Mark Rowley, the head of the Met police, has criticised Zack Polanski after he appeared to condemn police officers for allegedly “repeatedly and violently’” kicking a man suspected of stabbing two Jewish men while they attempted to detain him He has accused him of fuelling tensions and undermining confidence in the police ‘I am disappointed because it is this kind of inaccurate and misinformed commentary - with its associated casual disregard for the incredibly challenging and dangerous work police officers do for the public - that is contributing to the rising tensions we are seeing in society and undermines officer confidence to act’ He says the officers ‘are nothing short of extraordinary’ and that without their intervention lives would have been lost. He says the man ‘continued to pose a clear threat’ and they feared that he was ‘concealing an explosive device’ ‘Apprehending violent and dangerous criminals is a full contact and messy task which may appear shocking to observers with little experience of policing in the real world’

Braverman: "[the govt] could also go further & ban the hate marches, because thats whats fuelling antisemitism & extremism in our country" Supporting Palestinians, opposing Israeli genocide & apartheid, & calling out our govts complicity. None of that is antisemitic or extremist

I am deeply concerned about the terrorist attack that took place today. This is not an isolated incident. It is the latest in a spate of utterly vile attacks on the Jewish community. I’ve just chaired an emergency COBR meeting and tomorrow I’ll be bringing together criminal justice agencies to ensure we have effective and swift justice.
