The Home Secretary has vowed to close the 'gap in the law' on protests after a wave of pro-Palestine demonstrations took place in the wake of the Manchester synagogue attack.
Shabana Mahmood unveiled new laws handing police more powers to clamp down on repeat protests after 492 pro-Palestine marchers were arrested this weekend.
Forces across the country are now allowed to consider the 'cumulative impact' of demonstrations, including regular pro-Palestinian protests on a Saturday which Ms Mahmood previously branded 'un-British'.
These culminated in yesterday's march in central London which organisers refused to cancel despite two Jewish people being killed in a terrorist attack just two days prior.
The Home Secretary told Sky News' Sunday Morning with Trevor Phillips: 'The strengthening of the legislation that I'm going to bring about is based on the ability of the police to place conditions and restrictions on protests.
