Original Note:
The video does not show the entire flag. While the Palestinian flag has a green element, so is the flag of Hamas, which is a proscribed terrorist organisation within the United Kingdom. But even waving the Palestinian flag “might be a criminal offence” (Gov UK statement) https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Flag_of_Hamas.svg https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/proscribed-terror-groups-or-organisations--2/proscribed-terrorist-groups-or-organisations-accessible-version https://amp.theguardian.com/world/2023/oct/16/israel-hamas-war-what-are-the-laws-about-protest-flag-chants-england-wales
