The organiser of pro-Iran 'hate rally' through London met Ayatollah Ali Khamenei

The organiser of a pro-Iran 'hate rally' through London met Ayatollah Ali Khamenei to give him a dossier on Islamophobia in Britain. Massoud Shadjareh, co-founder and chair of the Islamic Human Rights Commission (IHRC), has been promoting a demonstration in Westminster to mark Al Quds Day. A planned march was banned by the Home Secretary on Tuesday to prevent 'serious public disorder', but a static demonstration is set to go ahead. While the IHRC claims to protect human rights, the group was described in a government-ordered review as having 'extremist links and terrorist sympathies' and its leaders are openly sympathetic to Tehran. A video from the IHRC's social media channels shows Mr Shadjareh recalling a meeting he had with Khamenei who was killed earlier this month in an Israeli airstrike. Mr Shadjareh, who was born in Iran in the 1970s, said he had been summoned to describe the findings of an IHRC report entitled, Environment of Hate: The New Normal for British Muslims in the UK.
