Not lovin’ it: Shocking moment pro-Palestine activist releases dozens of mice in flag colours loose in Birmingham McDonald’s

This is the shocking moment a pro-Palestinian activist released dozens of mice into a McDonald’s restaurant in Birmingham.

Footage posted on social media shows a man arriving at the fast food chain’s Star City restaurant last night in his car, with a license plate reading ‘PAIISTN’, before opening the boot and grabbing the huge box .

The man, who also wears a Palestinian flag on his head, then walks into McDonald’s and throws the box of mice on the floor towards two women who immediately run away in fright.

The activist can be heard repeatedly shouting “Free f***ing Palestine” as he walks back to his car, later adding “Boycott Israel” and “F*** Isrl” before driving away.

McDonald’s confirmed that ‘a number of mice’ had been released into the restaurant, which has now been ‘completely fumigated’ after the creatures were removed.

During the video, a text block appears on the screen that reads: ‘Targeted boycott. The Big Three. Start boycotting these brands that are directly involved in supporting Israeli apartheid.”

It then calls on viewers to stop buying food and drinks at Starbucks and McDonald’s, boycott Disney’s films and cancel subscriptions to its streaming platform Disney Plus.

It is also shown that the rats are painted green, black, white and red, representing the four colors that make up the Palestinian flag.

Towards the end of the video, a recording of a phone call is also played, as a man can be heard bragging, “All the alarms are going off; and that ‘the doors are closed’.

A second voice then adds, “Mission success.”

A McDonald’s spokesperson told LBC: ‘We are aware of an incident this evening at our Birmingham Star City restaurant where a number of mice were released by a member of the public.

‘After the mice were removed, the restaurant was fully disinfected and our pest control partners were called in for a full inspection.’

MailOnline has contacted West Midlands Police for comment.

The shocking incident comes as Suella Braverman ordered a review of terrorism and extremism laws after British police called for clarity on language used at pro-Palestinian demonstrations.

The Home Office said on Sunday it will consider whether new criminal offenses are needed to bridge the gap between countering hate speech and terrorism, the Mail understands.

It came after Metropolitan Police chief Sir Mark Rowley renewed calls for a fresh look at the legal definition of extremism and how police should respond.

However, any changes to the law will not provide a short-term solution to the febrile atmosphere in the aftermath of Hamas’ terror attack and Israel’s continued retaliation.

The review is likely to take months and it is unlikely that proposed legal changes will be implemented by the end of next year.
