Join the hundreds of PSC supporters who will be arriving in Westminister to deliver a clear message on Palestine. All participants will be briefed in advance of our key parliamentary asks and what to expect when meeting their MP. This is a great opportunity to get together with those who share your passion for Palestine and to make a real difference!
This year’s Lobby Day will focus on two of PSC’s core campaigns; the treatment of Palestinian Child Prisoners (info factsheet), and the demand for the UK to Stop Arming Israel (info factsheet).
The Lobby Day will take place on Wednesday 28th November from 12.00-18.00, with all participants also invited to attend a special rally meeting in the evening from 18.00 – 20.00. At this rally we will hear from experts and politicians on how to secure justice for Palestine.
Don’t miss this opportunity to have your voice heard in Parliament!
Frequent Questions:
Who can take part?
If you’re eligible to vote in General Elections you can lobby your local MP.
Do I need to be an expert?
No! You don’t need to be an expert. We will provide you with all the information you need in advance, and will have experts on hand on the day itself for last-minute preparation and questions. Your MP will be used to meeting local people who care passionately about an issue, but they shouldn’t expect you to know everything.
How long will my meeting last?
The meeting will normally last about half an hour, sometimes more, sometimes less. There are likely to be other people meeting your MP at the same time – MPs like to see everyone together. So you won’t be alone.
What is it like?
Coming to the Lobby is one of the best ways to show solidarity with the Palestinian people, and we’re sure you will get a lot out of the day. You’ll meet lots of like-minded people; our preparation talks are interesting and informative; and it’s also a great way to visit Parliament. As a final bonus – all participants are invited to attend an evening rally with MPs, Lords, and key note speakers.
Can’t come but still want to support the lobby?
You can still support the Lobby of Parliament even if you can’t be there on the day. Simply follow this link to send a message to your MP asking them to meet with the PSC briefing team on your behalf.
