Young marchers show their determination that Palestine will be free
A QUARTER of a million, mainly young people, marched from Victoria Embankment to Hyde Park in London on Saturday afternoon, demanding trade union action in the UK to boycott Israel and support Palestine.
As the march was assembling John Rees, National Officer Stop the War, one of the march’s organisers, told News Line: ‘The Palestinian General Strike this week forced Israel into submission. My position is the same as that of the PLO (Palestine Liberation Organisation) – a democratic secular state of Palestine must be established and recognised immediately by the international community.’
