A tense LBC interview saw a UK government minister pushed over calls to ban pro-Palestine marches, with the presenter questioning why similar standards are not applied to far-right rallies.
Lewis Goodall challenged Helen Whately after she described the demonstrations as “hate marches” and tried to link them to radicalisation.
He countered by pointing to documented anti-Muslim rhetoric at some far-right protests, asking whether those would also face bans under the same reasoning.
Goodall repeatedly returned to the issue of consistency, arguing that if the presence of extreme views among some attendees is enough to justify banning one set of marches, the same principle should apply across the board.
“On the basis of that logic, would you ban Tommy Robinson’s rally?” he asked, highlighting what he framed as a clear double standard.
As Whately attempted to draw distinctions between the protests, Goodall broke down the comparison in real time, noting that calls such as “ban Islam” would also target an entire group.
She declined to directly endorse banning those rallies, instead maintaining the situations were different, while the presenter argued the underlying principle remained the same.

Berlin police violently targeted Palestine protesters yesterday, using force during demonstrations in the city.
Protesters say they were singled out, restrained and assaulted by officers, making clear this was not about safety or order but about suppressing pro Palestine voices.
Yesterday’s incident fits a long running pattern in Berlin.
Over the weeks and months, police have repeatedly been documented punching, kicking, grabbing, dropping and dragging Palestine protesters.
Rights groups say this behaviour is not accidental or isolated, but part of systemic targeting that resurfaces every time Palestine supporters organise a peaceful protest.
The protests are driven by Israel’s genocide against Palestinians in Gaza, where mass killing, destruction and starvation continue under Israel’s blockade.
Germany’s political, military and diplomatic support for Israel, including arms exports and near unconditional backing, has made Palestine solidarity a direct target at home, with police violence used to silence opposition to Israel’s crimes.

"The most dangerous place to be a Jew today is in Israel."
Daniel Levy, a former Israeli peace negotiator and prominent Jewish voice, has warned that Zionism is now undermining Jewish safety and global security.
Speaking at a London panel titled “Genocide in Gaza, War on Iran: What’s Next for Palestine?” which is part of the Genocide in Gaza conference organised by the International Centre of Justice for Palestinians (ICJP), Levy said the actions of the Israeli state are fueling antisemitism and eroding post-Holocaust international law.
“What Israel does,” he warned, “is becoming ground zero for new levels of inhumanity.”

Israeli forces tortured both medical personnel and injured patients from Kamal Adwan Hospital in Gaza, according to witness testimonies.
Several medical staff were burned alive in fires set off during Israel's raid on the medical facility, and patients and medics were stripped down before being forced out of the hospital on foot.
Israeli forces said they had taken the director Dr Hussam Abu Safiya in for questioning, and accused him of being a "suspected Hamas terrorist operative".
Hospitals and medical facilities are considered protected sites during wartime under international law, however, Israel has repeatedly attacked hospitals in Gaza throughout its war on the besieged enclave.
