Moment lone Jewish man confronts pro-Palestine mob after activist threatened to ‘beat the f*** out of’ him in London – while Met Police are seen watching on

This is the shocking moment a lone Jewish man is subjected to a tirade of horrific anti-Semitic abuse by a group of pro-Palestine protesters. 

Video footage, which appears to have been taken during a pro-Palestine demonstration in central London, shows one protester saying to the man: ‘We should beat the f*** out of you’.

The footage also shows the activists calling the individual a ‘f****ing Jew’ and ‘a terrorist’ whilst another said ‘f*** you Israel’ amid chants of ‘Free, Free Palestine ‘.


Responding to the hounding, the Jewish man then hits back and says: ‘You should all beat the f*** out of me. Go for it, all of you. Beat the f*** out of me all of you. Come on!’

The clip was filmed at a time of increasing anti-Semitism across the UK following the Hamas terrorist attack on Israel last October.

The Jewish man goes on to criticise the police for just ‘standing around’ and not making any attempts to arrest the demonstrators, adding: ‘The police are stood here doing nothing when they’re literally inciting violence. Jews pay attention, leave the UK while you can.’

It comes as Pro-Palestine protests continued across England and Wales on Saturday following Rishi Sunak’s warning last week that demonstrations and democracy itself were being targeted by extremists.


The Palestine Solidarity Campaign (PSC) singled out Barclays bank for its day of action, assembling at nearly 50 locations including the branch on Tottenham Court Road in central London.

Meanwhile, another national march, organised by the PSC, takes place in central London on Saturday, March 9.

Speaking at a lectern outside the doors of No 10 Downing Street on Friday, the Prime Minister warned about the current situation in Britain, in the aftermath of the October 7 attacks by Hamas against Israel.

‘In recent weeks and months, we have seen a shocking increase in extremist disruption and criminality,’ he said in a hastily arranged address to the nation.

‘What started as protests on our streets have descended into intimidation, threats and planned acts of violence.

‘Jewish children, fearful to wear their school uniform lest it reveals their identity. Muslim women abused in the street for the actions of a terrorist group they have no connection with.


‘Now our democracy itself is a target. Council meetings and local events have been stormed. MPs do not feel safe in their homes. Long-standing parliamentary conventions have been upended because of safety concerns.’

The Prime Minister also said a line has to be drawn so that while people should be able to ‘march and protest with passion’ in support of Gaza, demonstrators ‘cannot call for violent jihad’, justify the actions of Palestinian militant group Hamas – a proscribed group in the UK, which bans any show of support – or ‘call for the eradication of a state or any kind of hatred or antisemitism’.

He confirmed he has met senior police chiefs to tell them the public expected the pro-Palestine protests to be policed rather than simply managed.

‘I say this to the police, we will back you when you take action,’ he said.

He said those instructions to police would be backed up by further action from the Government.

What he called a ‘new robust framework’ would be introduced to ‘ensure we are dealing with the root cause of this problem’, the Prime Minister said.


Mr Sunak said ministers would redouble their support for the anti-terrorism Prevent programme, demand universities stop extremist activity on campus and act to prevent people from entering the country whose ‘aim is to undermine its values’.

A recent report by the Community Security Trust revealed the number of anti-Semitic incidents jumped 147 per cent last year to record levels. 

The CST, a charity, recorded 4,103 instances of anti-Semitism, up from 1,662 in 2022.

It included 266 violent assaults on Jews, up 96 per cent year-on-year and the highest figure since the CST started gathering data 40 years ago.


For the first time, it recorded at least one anti-Semitic incident for every police force in the UK, with the majority – more than 2,400 – in London, including some at vigils for Hamas’s Israeli hostages.

A spokesman for the charity said: ‘This was a watershed for anti-Semitism in the UK. The speed at which anti-Semites mobilised in the UK on and immediately after October 7 suggests that, initially at least, this increase in anti-Jewish hate was a celebration of the Hamas attack on Israel, rather than anger at Israel’s military response in Gaza.’

There were 31 incidents on October 7 alone, and they peaked in the week that followed with 416 including 80 on one day alone, October 11. Israel’s military operation against Hamas began on October 27.
