London’s Bias Police

A few weeks ago, Britain’s polarizing Home Secretary, Suella Braverman, was asked to resign from the government after she published an unauthorized column in the Times of London.  She had already tossed many provocations at the government she worked for, particularly over immigration — which I wrote about in our pages — but this was on the topic of police bias. Namely, she accused London’s Metropolitan Police of playing favorites in handling arrests, cracking down on the right wing, nationalist protesters but going easy on what she called pro-Palestinian “hate marchers,” much as they had three years ago with Black Lives Matter activists who were “allowed to break rules.”
