SINCE the Hamas attack on October 7 and Israel’s response of an all-out assault on Gaza, there has been an unparalleled rise in the scale and strength of worldwide solidarity actions demanding a ceasefire.

In Britain, the Palestine Solidarity Campaign and other organisations have organised 10 national marches so far. There have been pro-Palestine vigils, marches, rallies, sit-ins, petitions and protests in towns and cities up and down the three nations. This broad movement includes people from all age groups, from different religious communities and cultural backgrounds and from every section of society. 

We have seen a huge demonstration of unity in action seeking justice for the Palestinian people in their long struggle against occupation and oppression.
