Half a million march for Gaza in London as peace demos take a stand across Britain
The march was the biggest ever in Britain for Palestine

ANGER erupted on the streets of towns and cities across Britain this weekend as record numbers of protesters mobilised to demand a halt to Israel’s murderous attack on the population of Gaza.

Half a million marched in London in the capital’s biggest-ever protest for Palestine yesterday.

And activists occupied and shut down the capital’s Waterloo station demanding an immediate ceasefire, an end to Britain’s arms trade with Israel and Israel’s occupation of Palestine.
