Swastikas ‘need to be taken into context’

The Daily Mail report:

A Jewish woman who confronted a Met Police officer after he said that swastikas ‘need to be taken into context’ when she reported seeing them at a pro-Palestine protest has said the force needs ‘basic education’.

Jocelin Weiss, 30, was blown away after being told by police that the Nazi symbol was ‘not necessarily anti-Semitic or a disruption of public order’ when she saw it being displayed on a poster of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.

The Met has sparked a major backlash, including on US news websites, after video emerged of an officer seemingly justifying the use of swastikas to Ms Weiss at Saturday’s march.

Now it shouldn’t be illegal to display a swastika, but the fact the Met Police will arrest someone for peacefully counter protesting a pro-Hamas march, and defend and justify the display of swastikas is telling.
