Nigel Farage suggests possible compromise for Remembrance Day protest<\/h3>\n

Nigel Farage set out the “only possible compromise” for the pro-Palestine demonstration due to take place on Armistice Day.<\/p>\n

The former Ukip and Brexit Party leader said it was “probably now too late” to ban the protest in central London this Saturday.<\/p>\n

But Mr Farage suggested the rally should be confined to Hyde Park as a “compromise solution”, rather than the planned route to the US embassy in Vauxhall.<\/p>\n

Speaking on his GB News show, he said: “I suspect in some ways it’s probably now too late to ban this march. People will have booked tickets, they’re probably going to turn up anyway.<\/p>\n

“So is there a compromise solution? I think there is. You see, the police certainly don’t have the power to ban gatherings.<\/p>\n

“So why not allow the pro-Palestine protesters to have their gathering in Hyde Park, to fly their flags in Hyde Park, but if they leave Hyde Park and head towards our national monuments then arrest every single one of them. That to me seems to be at this late hour perhaps the only possible compromise.”<\/p>\n

Mr Farage also criticised the lack of decision-making over the march as he took aim at Prime Minister Rishi Sunak, the Met Police and London Mayor Sadiq Khan.<\/p>\n

There have been ongoing calls for it to be banned due to fears over Remembrance events being disrupted and violence erupting around the Cenotaph.<\/p>\n

The PM said he will hold Met Police chief Sir Mark Rowley personally accountable for his decision to allow the demonstration to take place following a meeting earlier today.<\/p>\n

Mr Farage said: “The indecision is reaching levels that are almost embarrassing. Who’s in charge of making a decision as to whether the pro-Palestine march should go ahead through central London this Saturday, Armistice Day, or not?<\/p>\n
