Dozens of people have been arrested around the UK at similar protests.

Demonstrations also took place in Manchester, Edinburgh, Bristol and Truro as part of a campaign coordinated by Defend Our Juries.

Protesters displayed messages of “I oppose genocide I support Palestine Action” on placards before being surrounded by police officers in Parliament Square, London.

Fifty-five people were arrested in Parliament Square under Section 13 of the Terrorism Act 2000 for displaying placards in support of Palestine Action, the Metropolitan Police said.
