Protesters dressed as Hamas terrorists, praising Hitler and carrying antisemitic placards who “would not have looked out of place in Nazi Germany” are being hunted by police amid anger at the failure to intervene during the pro-Palestinian march on Armistice Day.

A woman marched through central London carrying a placard featuring the Jewish Star of David intertwined with a swastika above the slogan, “No British politician should be a ‘friend of Israel’”.

Another woman was recorded screaming “death to all the Jews,” while a man was heard shouting: “Hitler knew how to deal with these people”.

A third woman, being hunted by police, carried a placard depicting Rishi Sunak, the prime minister, and Suella Braverman, the home secretary, as coconuts, which is a racist symbol
