Original Note:
According to the MET, the man was stopped because he looked "openly Jewish", and that would have antagonised the marchers. There is no indication that the man had provoked or intended to provoke the protestors, aside from walking across the road and looking Jewish. https://news.sky.com/story/sky-news-footage-reveals-new-details-of-exchange-between-police-and-antisemitism-campaigner-called-openly-jewish-13120104 https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-13333677/met-police-scramble-openly-jewish-scandal-man-threatened-arrest-private-meeting.html https://www.bbc.com/news/uk-england-london-68856360
