Really and you can prove this can you? All I recall is him begin threatened with arrest for being clearly Jewish. Please supply your version of events?
Oh by the way escorted out of the area for being Jewish is not helped across the road.

Would this be the video that lead to this apology?
In the statement of apology that was issued first, Met Police Assistant Commissioner Matt Twist said: "The video posted by the Campaign Against Antisemitism will further dent the confidence of many Jewish Londoners, which is the opposite of what any of us want.
"The use of the term 'openly Jewish' by one of our officers is hugely regrettable. It's absolutely not the basis on which we make decisions, it was a poor choice of words and while not intended, we know it will have caused offence to many. We apologize.

No, I think we've moved on from that. There was the original short video posted by the campaign group, which gave a highly distorted impression of the incident. The full video, which has since been released, is what led to this analysis:
Really is he not free then or if =so why did the Met issue a further apology. This second one from the Met is all about victim blaming that you seem to support.
The force said: "We have reflected on the strength of the response to our previous statement. In an effort to make a point about the policing of protest we caused further offence.
"This was never our intention... and we apologise.
"Being Jewish is not a provocation. Jewish Londoners must be able to feel safe in this city.
"Our commitment to protecting the public extends to all communities across London. It's important that our public statements reflect that more clearly than they did today."
Mr Falter also says in the video footage that he plans to attend a CAA event when the next pro-Palestine protest is planned in the capital, adding that no part of London should be unsafe.
Police said they were happy to meet with anyone who wanted to organise a march or protest.

You're still behind the curve on this one! Things have moved on, with the release of the full video from Sky News. I am running out of ways to say the same thing.
Basically, he didn't realise that Sky News were filming him filming the police

Do you really think a Jewish person should have been allowed to walk through a Palestinian march? Honestly?
They issued the two apologies before they saw the full video from Sky News. They were basing it on the highly distorted video from the campaign group. He's behaving like a complete prat, and a spoilt child, and it seems he might even be trying to push the police out of the way. I agree the policeman showed admirable restraint.
Oh dear and her is probably a more balanced level of reporting
Rishi Sunak says he has confidence in Met Police chief after protest row
But the prime minister says Sir Mark Rowley still needs to rebuild the trust of the Jewish community.

Honestly? they should be free to do so in this country.
I’m talking of the clear picture I’m seeing of Gaza on the news every night and what sparked it off. I know what caused it and so does everybody but hey ho, carry on pretending nothing happened to kick off this latest scuffle.
The knicker wetters will disagree mate,
