Land Day protest against supporters of Israeli state

Oxford St, London. Sat 31 Mar 2018

 


 Campaigners stood in front of the main entrance to Marks & Spencer on Oxford St

 They collected petition signatures and handed out leaflets

 THe Revolutionary Communist Group, RCG, held regular pictures here for years and were often attacked by Jewish thugs

 

 'Jerusalem is the Capital of Palestine'

 'Free All Palestinian Political Prisoners'

 

 Samidoun Palestinian Prisoner Solidarity Network

 

 There were speeches from an 'open mike' with anyone with progressive views invited to speak

 
     
 

 A campaigner talks about the failure of Kensington & Chelsea to care for and rehouse those made homeless

 by the Grenfell fire, urging people to come and join the silent marches every 14th of the month. These now start

 from Kensington Town Hall at around 17.30.

 A campaigner speaks about Palestine in front of the banner 'Zionism is Racism - Free Palestine'

 

 Campaigners pose for a group picture before leaving to protest outside other shops which support Israel

 on their 'rolling picket' down Oxford St.

 On previous occasions they have been opposed by a small group of people, some Jewish, carrying Israeli flags

 Today I saw none of them, perhaps because it was Passover, though I like to hope it was because they too

were appalled by the shooting with live ammunition at unarmed protesters in Gaza which killed 17 and wounded over 750.
