MPs have said they want extra security at Remembrance<\/span> events as they fear being harassed or attacked amid tensions over the Israel-Hamas war.<\/p>\n

Several MPs have asked parliamentary authorities to provide more protection at wreath-laying events in their constituencies, according to a report.<\/p>\n

An MP told The Sun on Sunday<\/span> “many” Parliamentarians have had threats to their security, adding: “I certainly have. Sadly, I see no alternative. I\u2019ll be having security.<\/p>\n

“It\u2019s the one time when people absolutely know where we\u2019re going to be. It\u2019s sad and worrying, but it is what it is.”<\/p>\n

The news comes amid concerns about a planned pro-Palestine<\/span> march which coincides with Armistice Day.<\/p>\n

Prime Minister Rishi Sunak and Home Secretary Suella Braverman have expressed concern about the prospect of such protests on November 11.<\/p>\n

Metropolitan Police Commissioner Sir Mark Rowley has promised to take a “robust” approach and to use all the powers available to ensure commemorative events are “not undermined”.<\/p>\n

Demonstration organisers in London have pledged to avoid the Whitehall area where the focus of national remembrance events, The Cenotaph, is located.<\/p>\n

Deputy Prime Minister Oliver Dowden suggested the November 11 march should not go ahead and reminded the police of their duty to ensure public safety.<\/p>\n
