Saturday October 21st Rally

About 3000 people attended a passionate rally to show support for Palestinians on Saturday.

Thanks to @PeakMedia

Heartfelt speeches as the intensification of the ongoing Nakba ( for when has it ever stopped?!) unfolds in front of us, combined with incisive analysis of the complicity of the UK and the USA in the genocide we are witnessing.

Commemorate 75th anniversary of the NAKBA , 15th May

Last night’s bombing of Gaza when 12 people were killed is evidence, if any more were needed, that the Nakba continues.

It is also a key reason for us to gather together at the train station to commemorate the Nakba and say clearly that British state and industry complicity must stop .

So please come to the station at 5pm, Monday 15th May

BADIL UK Tour

We are really pleased to be able to announce a two week tour in England and Scotland, by Saif Kassis, international advocay officer for BADIL.

The tour is a collaboration between BADIL and several Palestine Solidarity Campaign branches.

As we mark 75 years of Nakba, Israel continues to forcibly displace the Palestinian people.

Saif will provide insights into the current situation of Palestinian refugees, the ongoing denial of Palestinian collective rights to self-determination and return, and the responsibility of the international community.

The full schedule is here.

Ongoing Nakba talk 16th May 2023

We are really pleased to be able to welcome Saif Kassis, international advocacy officer for refugee rights organisation, Badil, as part of a UK-wide tour.

Saif will speak at the Showroom 5 on 16th May at 7pm

On the 75th anniversary of the Nakba, Saif will show how through arbitrary arrest, house demolitions, restrictions on movement and denial of access to clean water, the Israeli state ensures the Nakba continues each and every day.

When we meet Saif, we will be able to

  • get an update of the situation from a trusted source
  • hear about Badil’s work and campaigns, especially the importance of the Right of Return
  • find out more about their deeply principled stand in refusing funding from the EU
  • see how we might be able to support them.
