Palestine campaigners march in Margate after Landmark council vote

PALESTINE campaigners in Thanet marched through Margate on Saturday after the local council passed a landmark motion calling for a ceasefire in Gaza.

Following the march, the campaigners gathered at a meeting where former ANC MP Andrew Feinstein delivered a speech.

Mr Feinstein recounted Nelson Mandela’s words upon his release from prison in 1990: “There is much work to do because our freedom is incomplete until the Palestinians are free.”
