On Saturday 15 November, join an action at a supermarket near you to demand that they stop stocking Israeli goods and Coca-Cola products, and to spread the word about the mass consumer boycott.
Israeli fresh produce, like avocados, oranges, herbs and dates, is grown in illegal Israeli settlements built on stolen Palestinian land. Coca-Cola’s franchisee in Israel operates a regional distribution centre in an illegal Israeli settlement in occupied Jerusalem. It’s therefore helping to entrench Israel’s illegal military occupation and colonisation of Palestinian land.
When supermarkets in Britain sell this produce, they are profiting from Israel’s land theft and ethnic cleansing. Right now, Palestinians in the West Bank are facing relentless land grabs and attacks from the Israeli military and armed settlers. Nearly 50 Palestinian communities have been partly or completely forcibly displaced in the past two years. In Britain, we can meaningfully oppose this violence by refusing to buy goods from companies enabling it, hitting their profit margins.
Join your local PSC branch on Saturday 15 November as we hold protests and stalls at supermarkets across Britain to call on them to stop stocking Israeli products and Coca-Cola, and to grow the consumer boycott of these goods.
