But that charge has been laid at his door because there are candidates for the Green Party standing in election who have said horrendous things. And the Met Police Commissioner, Sir Mark Rowley, you mentioned his letter. Here he is talking about why rushing to go to the public forum and criticise police tactics is a dangerous thing to do. Here's what he said to BBC Breakfast.
Independent advisor on terrorism, Jonathan Hall. He says it's time for a moratorium on protests. I think it's time to look across the board at protests and the cumulative effect.
