Incredible amount of support for Palestinians this weekend: take your pick from Sheffield, Chesterfield and / or Rotherham this weekend. But please do show your support.
This just shows the depth of solidarity there is. Use the link to get full details of the event
This Wednesday (from 1pm to 3pm), we are uniting to make our voices heard and pressure the Sheffield City Council to pass a motion we support on Palestine, which includes:
– Asking the Chief Executive to write to the UK government, requesting to call for an immediate ceasefire and vote for this at the UN
– Cease all arms sales to Israel and end military aid for Israel (Elbit systems)
– Join the Sheffield Coalition Against Israeli Apartheid
– Condemn as a city all rhetoric that perpetuates genocide
A Green Party councillor will present this motion and vote during the rally – a pivotal moment for our cause.
Let’s come together as one powerful force, shaking the foundations of the council building with our voices from the outside.
We need YOU to show your unwavering support for Palestine and demand change.
As Israel launches yet another major military offensive against the 2.3 million residents of the Gaza Strip, many in the UK will want to show their solidarity with the oppressed people of Palestine.
However, it is important to understand how to voice your protest in a way that is measured, responsible, and most importantly, that serves to support, rather than undermine, the cause of Palestine.
About 3000 people attended a passionate rally to show support for Palestinians on Saturday.

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.
