Is Sunak right to say the Palestine march is ‘disrespectful’?

What does Rishi Sunak mean when he says Saturday’s pro-Palestine march in London is ‘disrespectful’? The Prime Minister was responding to the announcements from Metropolitan Police chief Sir Mark Rowley that his force would not be banning the demonstration in London. Sunak said:

This is a decision that the Metropolitan Police Commissioner has made, and he has said that he can ensure that he safeguards remembrance for the country this weekend as well as keep the public safe. Now, my job is to hold him accountable for that and we’ve asked the police for information on how they will ensure that this happens… My view is that these marches are disrespectful and that’s what I’ll be discussing with the Police Commissioner later today.

It is quite remarkable that the core of the Prime Minister’s argument against the march is that it is ‘disrespectful’. There are plenty of other reasons he might have cited: that some of those on the marches we’ve seen in recent weeks have carried placards threatening Jews, calling for the annihilation of Israel, and comparing Israelis to the Nazis.
