Allison Pearson.
The Guardian reported on a post that it had found.
The Guardian reports, It is an alleged retweet by Pearson of a photograph posted several months ago… It shows a group of people of colour posing with a flag on a British street, flanked by three police officers.
The photograph angered Pearson, who allegedly wrote a tweet condemning the Metropolitan police: “How dare they. Invited to pose for a photo with lovely peaceful British Friends of Israel on Saturday police refused. Look at this lot smiling with the Jew haters.”
The Guardian reported
In fact, the picture is from Manchester, sources confirm, and thus the officers pictured are from Greater Manchester police and not the London force.
The implication that the Muslims pictured are antisemitic and supporting Hamas is undermined by the green and maroon flag they are holding. The flag is used by supporters of the Pakistani political party Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI). It also, rather clearly, has the word “Pakistan” written on it. PTI was founded by the former international cricketer Imran Khan, who became prime minister of Pakistan before being deposed and jailed.
According to the Guardian, someone who saw what Pearson had posted, had reported the tweet to the police.
The Guardian, said that the person who reported the incident to the police, said,
Pearson tweeted something that had nothing to do with Palestine or the London protests: she tweeted a picture of two persons of colour holding a flag of a Pakistani political party standing next to some GMP officers … Her description of the two people of colour as Jew haters is racist and inflammatory.
