BRITISH firms and organisations involved in Israel are facing a growing backlash of direct action by Palestine supporters demanding they break their links with the increasingly isolated state.

During Saturday’s huge London demonstration marking the anniversary of Israel’s attack on Gaza, a coalition of more than 50 organisations and over 1,000 activists took direct action against “complicit companies and institutions” along the route of the national march.

Targets included branches of Barclays Bank and the British Museum.
