A PROTESTER dressed as a Holocaust victim goes unchallenged by Met cops — amid claims of two-tier policing.
Maria Gallastegui sparked outrage by wearing a concentration camp-style uniform – swapping the yellow star for an Islamic symbol – at a Westminster demo.
Jewish leaders and MPs hit out at the Met, claiming officers warned men waving Israeli flags they could breach the peace but ignored Ms Gallastegui’s stunt.
It comes after a man was prosecuted for burning a Koran in London, fuelling claims of “double standards” in policing.
Shadow Justice Secretary Robert Jenrick said: “We appear to have a two-tier blasphemy law in this country, which protects Islam from offensive references but not others.”
Labour Against Antisemitism also slammed the outfit for “appropriating and distorting the Holocaust.”
The group said it “was clearly designed to cause distress”.
They have written to Met Commissioner Sir Mark Rowley demanding action over the protest outside Parliament.
Ms Gallastegui, 66, defended herself, saying: “This is a history lesson for now, and by no means is it meant to be anti-Semitic.
Changing the symbols of the yellow star to the crescent and star is simply to illustrate that point.”
