TENS of thousands of Palestine supporters are expected to march through London tomorrow, culminating a week of protests which have included workplace stoppages, student mobilisations and attacks on companies collaborating with Israel’s genocide in Gaza.

The protest is the capital’s 22nd national march and rally for Palestine since Israel launched its murderous war on the people of Gaza in October last year.

It follows Friday’s annual United Nations International Day of Solidarity with the Palestinian People and a national lobby of MPs at Westminster on Wednesday by Palestine Solidarity Campaign supporters.

The Palestinian death toll in Gaza now exceeds 43,000. 

Today, activists from Palestine Action attacked the Manchester offices of insurance company Allianz in protest at its involvement with Israeli-owned arms manufacturer Elbit Systems.

Elbit has five factories in the UK providing weapons to Israel, including military drones and pilotless warplanes.

Allianz’s premises were sprayed with red paint symbolising Palestinian blood and windows were smashed.

Saturday’s national protest in the capital has been called by a coalition of campaign groups – Palestine Solidarity Campaign, Stop the War, CND, Muslim Association of Britain, Friends of Al Aqsa and Palestine Forum in Britain.

It will target continuing British complicity with Israel despite the issuing of International Criminal Court arrest warrants against Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and former defence secretary Yoav Gallant for war crimes.

Palestine Solidarity Campaign director Ben Jamal said: “Sir Keir Starmer and [Foreign Secretary] David Lammy are still hiding from their responsibilities under international law, but their cover is blown.

“The world’s highest courts have confirmed that our leaders are giving political, military, diplomatic and financial support to a state carrying out war crimes and crimes against humanity.

“The resistance to their complicity from ordinary citizens is growing in strength and spreading from the streets into workplaces across the land.

“This week saw unprecedented support for our latest workplace day of action with the backing of the TUC representing millions of British workers.

“We will never stop lobbying, protesting, and boycotting until our government, corporations and public bodies end their complicity with Israel’s decades of oppression of the Palestinian people.”

The march leaves Park Lane at 12.30 and rallies in Whitehall at 2.30pm.
