To ask His Majesty's Government how many arrests or public order incidents have been recorded at Al-Quds Day demonstrations in London over the past ten years.
To ask His Majesty's Government how many arrests or public order incidents have been recorded at Al-Quds Day demonstrations in London over the past ten years.
The Commissioner of the Metropolitan Police, Sir Mark Rowley, wrote to the Home Secretary on 9 March requesting her consent to an order under section 13 of the Public Order Act 1986 to prohibit processions and counter-processions in relation to Al Quds Day.
The Home Secretary approved the order, to prevent serious public disorder. The Government’s foremost duty is the protection of its citizens, and this includes ensuring the safety of participants at the protest and counter-protests, as well as the wider public.
It is the responsibility of police to manage protests and maintain a balance between the right to protest and the need to protect the public from serious disruption or harm. Forces regularly engage with communities to understand the impact of protests.
There are no official Government figures on the number of arrests or public order incidents recorded at Al Quds Day demonstrations in London, however the Metropolitan Police publicised that in 2024 there were 10 arrests, and in 2025 there was one arrest.
To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, what assessment she has made of the potential impact of the arrest made at a Quaker meeting house in London in March 2025 on peaceful protest.

The Metropolitan Police are operationally independent of the government. It is for the police to make decisions about how to respond to specific incidents based on their professional judgement and the circumstances at hand.

The Home Office does not centrally hold the information requested.
The Home Office collects and publishes data on arrests made by police forces in England and Wales. The most recent statistics, including a breakdown of arrests by police force area, covering the year ending 31 March 2021 can be found in Section 3 here: Police powers and procedures: Stop and search and arrests, England and Wales, year ending 31 March 2021 - GOV.UK (www.gov.uk)
These data only cover arrests for notifiable offences and therefore will not include arrests made under the Vagrancy Act 1824.

- The Written Answer (HL1336) is not inconsistent with the press release from the Metropolitan Police. It referred to the results from the trials, which finished last year, and not the recent deployments of live facial recognition technology.
- Those are matters for the Scottish Parliament, the Metropolitan Police Service and South Wales Police, which are all independent of the Government. The Government supports the police using new technologies like facial recognition to protect the public in accordance with the law.
To ask Her Majesty's Government, during the recent Metropolitan Police trial of automated facial recognition technology, how many individuals on the system’s watchlist were correctly identified; how many alerts resulted in (1) an arrest, and (2) a subsequent conviction; and for which offences.
To ask Her Majesty's Government, during the recent Metropolitan Police trial of automated facial recognition technology, how many individuals on the system’s watchlist were correctly identified; how many alerts resulted in (1) an arrest, and (2) a subsequent conviction; and for which offences.
The Metropolitan Police Service (MPS) are operationally independent of government.
They have disclosed the following information:
Costs
The MPS have records of Live Facial Recognition software and associated hardware at a current total cost of £240,000.
The MPS have no record of other costs relating to preparatory work or associated manpower.
Outcomes
During their trials ten individuals on the system’s watchlist were correctly identified, resulting in eight arrests (these figures discount alerts generated by test subjects).
The offences for which they were arrested were: false imprisonment; breach of non-molestation order; two counts of rape; discharge of firearm; breach of restraining order and harassment; domestic assault and theft; robbery and assault on police.
Two of these arrests have resulted in convictions so far (breach of non-molestation order and assault on police).

The Home Office collects and publishes data on the number of arrests for notifiable offences, on a financial year basis, broken down by Police Force Area. Detailed information on the location of the arrest, or on events associated with the arrest, are not collected.
Data on the number of arrests are published in the ‘Police Powers and Procedures, England and Wales’ statistical bulletin. The latest bulletin, covering the year to 31 March 2018, can be accessed here: https://www.gov.uk/government/collections/police-powers-and-procedures-england-and-wales

The Office for National Statistics publish data collected by the Home Office on the number of recorded crimes of ‘possession of article with blade or point’ but this is not broken down by age. Additionally, the Home Office publishes data at the police force and Community Safety Partnership area in Open Data Tables, which can be found here: https://www.gov.uk/government/statistics/police-recorded-crime-open-data-tables
The Home Office publishes arrests by each police force in England and Wales at offence group level only. It is not possible to tell from these data how many arrests related to knife crimes.
To ask Her Majesty’s Government what action they propose to take to improve the arrest and prosecution rates for racist attacks, abuse and graffiti on London's rail network, in the light of the 650 incidents reported since 2013, resulting in only 13 arrests.
To ask Her Majesty’s Government what action they propose to take to improve the arrest and prosecution rates for racist attacks, abuse and graffiti on London's rail network, in the light of the 650 incidents reported since 2013, resulting in only 13 arrests.
The Government considers the safety of people using the rail network to be of paramount importance. The British Transport Police (BTP) treats racially motivated hate crimes very seriously and a daily review takes place of every hate crime from the previous 24 hours. In line with the College of Policing’s National Hate Crime Strategy, BTP is working with partners to reduce hate crime and every crime is investigated in accordance with the College of Policing Guidance for the investigation of hate crime.
In addition, the London Transport Community Safety Partnership (LTCSP), which brings together Transport for London (TfL), the police and other key stakeholders, is looking at this important issue at a strategic level to ensure a coordinated response. Both the BTP and the Metropolitan Police have stepped up operational activity to provide a visible, engaging, reassuring presence across the TfL network. TfL is also working with community organisations to engage with them on this issue and encourage reporting. TfL provides full support to the police for their investigations, through staff reporting and access to CCTV and oyster card data, to help bring any offenders to justice.

The Home Office does not collect data on the number of people arrested in connection with firearms. For offences that may or may not involve a firearm (such as robbery) we cannot separately identify those that involved a firearm from those that did not. As a result, we cannot provide numbers of arrests made in connection with firearms. In addition, specific arrests made by the police cannot be linked to convictions and sentences given in court. As a result, we would be unable to say how many of those arrests led to a sentence of five years or more.

the six pilot boroughs, during the week 30 June to 6 July 2013. The number does not include those who had been refused entry or arrested at Heathrow airport.

I congratulate the hon. Gentleman on securing this very important debate. Does he agree that this campaign has caused division, and also fear in the minds of the citizens who freely walk on the streets that they will be stopped and perhaps harassed by the police and other agencies?
