Pro-Palestine and pro-Israel tensions are escalating in the UK ahead of Armistice Day. The Edinburgh War Memorial poppy wreaths were set alight, while a planned pro-Palestine march on Armistice Day is being condemned by Israel's president and the Metropolitan Police. Labour leader Keir Starmer is facing criticism for his stance on the Gaza conflict, leading to resignations from Labour MPs and trade union support for the pro-Palestine march. A WWI memorial in Rochdale was vandalized with 'Free Palestine' graffiti, causing concerns of clashes between far-right groups and pro-Palestine protesters.
