Stars and candidates unite for Palestine

PRO-PALESTINIAN candidates challenging Labour secured superstar backing at a Stand up for Palestine concert in London on Friday evening.
Former Pink Floyd singer and bassist Roger Waters, celebrated singer-songwriter Yusuf Islam (formerly Cat Stevens) and top rapper Lowkey shared the bill with leading independent candidates.
Those they were supporting included Andrew Feinstein, who is challenging Labour leader Sir Keir Starmer in the Holborn & St Pancras constituency where the concert was held.
