SUMMARY:Divest for Palestine - Day of Action
DESCRIPTION:PSC’s research has uncovered that local government pension sc
 heme funds\, administered by councils across Britain\, collectively inves
 t over £4.4billion in companies complicit in Israel’s oppression of Pal
 estinians. This includes in companies supplying Israel with weapons and mi
 litary technology used in its genocidal attacks on Palestinians in Gaza.\n
 \nIn addition\, councils procure services from companies complicit in Isra
 el's attacks. For example\, many councils use Barclays banking services.\n
 Councils must take immediate action to end ties with companies that are co
 mplicit in abuses of Palestinian rights\, including by divesting pension f
 unds they administer from companies enabling Israel’s genocide. The defe
 rred wages of local government workers must not be used to fund injustice.
 \nTake action to demand councils divest for Palestine now!\n\nFriday\, Aug
