May Day marches continue as tens of thousands demand end to genocide in Gaza

TENS of thousands of protesters gathered in more than 30 towns and cities for May Day on Saturday with demands for an end to the genocide in Gaza.

More marches and rallies are planned for today, many including Palestine blocs of marchers, as trade unionists continue to mark International Workers’ Day.

And more than 100,000 people have signed a petition calling on the government to introduce a fast-track visa scheme allowing people in Gaza to join family members in Britain, cutting bureaucracy as the government did for Ukrainian refugees.
