British media personality and columnist Katie Hopkins has lashed out at London Mayor Sadiq Khan after British Pakistanis demonstrated protest and created a mess outside the Indian High Commission in London after New Delhi's Article 370 move.

Taking it to Twitter, columnist Katie Hopkins said, "The Indian Embassy in London - one of our greatest allies - is a filthy mess of eggs and vandalised windows at the hands of Pakistani protesters in the UK."

She further questioned the role of London Mayor saying, "Is the Muslim Mayor of London enabling this behaviour? Why has this not been cleaned up? Deeply shaming for Britain."

Many Brits have denounced the recent violent protests and vandalisation of the Indian High Commission in London during 'The Kashmir Freedom March' organised by a plethora of British Kashmiri groups.

Thousands of protesters had gathered outside the High Commission on Tuesday over the Kashmir issue. They threw eggs and vegetables on the embassy building. The demonstrators also smashed a windowpane of the High Commission.

In a video shot outside the Indian High Commission by Katie Hopkins, she showed the mess created outside the embassy in London after Pakistanis protested with tarnished windows and eggs lying around. She questioned the role of London Mayor on this incident. 

 

In her video, she said, 'I am here just outside the Indian embassy in London... once again we have seen massive protests organised by Pakistanis... what's so disappointing outside here is that... eggs all over the wall, eggs at the front door... windows tarnished... I don't understand how in a capital... we are prepared to leave an embassy..." 

 

 

"To be clear what these Pakistani's gentlemen are protesting is the revoking of Article 370 in Kashmir, which will mean that minorities have rights, non-muslims can buy lands, women can marry whom they want... that's what these Pakistani people are protesting..." she said.

 

'What concerns me from the state of this building is the mess here... A Muslim Mayor of the city, a Pakistani gentleman himself... is kind of enabling this kind of protest..." she concluded.

"It is shameful for 'British' Pakistanis to deface the embassy of India, one of the UK's greatest allies. Why hasn’t Khan (London Mayor) cleaned this mess up?" Katie Hopkins said.

The protesters were carrying flags of Pakistan-occupied Kashmir (PoK) and shouted "freedom" slogans.

 

David Vance of AltNewsMedia tweeted, "In London, UK Pakistanis attack the Indian High Commission. Why are these feral thugs allowed on our streets?"

 

He alleged that British Pakistanis are enjoying the support of the Scottish National Party.

 

"Many (UK) Pakistanis in Scotland are strong supporters of the separatist SNP (Scottish National Party). In return, the SNP is campaigning to reinstate Article 370 in Kashmir, so that non-Muslims there can continue to receive severely discriminatory treatment," Vance said in another tweet.
