Palestine Solidarity Campaign is an independent and democratic organisation, campaigning for peace, equality & justice for Palestinians, in line with international law & human rights, and against all forms of racism.

Palestine Solidarity Campaign Fringe Meeting at Unite the Union Policy Conference 2021
Solidarity with Palestine
Wednesday 20 October – 12.30pm/Lunchtime
Room 12, inside the ACC Liverpool
Speakers:
Sara Husseini, Director British Palestinian Council
Mick Casey, EC Unite the Union
Ben Jamal, Director Palestine Solidarity Campaign
Gemma Bolton, Former participant in Unite the Union Delegation to Palestine
Dave Allan, Disabled Members Rep on EC Unite the Union & TUC General Council
Chaired by Simon Dubbins, Director of International and Research, Unite the Union
Everyone welcome. Lunchtime refreshments will be available.
Unite the Union has for many years been at the forefront of the solidarity movement for justice and equality for Palestinians, and with the most recent attacks on Palestinians in Gaza and Jerusalem last May, we need to make sure we step up our solidarity work with Palestine, now more than ever.
This fringe event will be looking at the current situation in Palestine and will be discussing what Unite members can do in the union and communities to continue to support the Palestinian people working and living under military occupation and apartheid.

B’Tselem – A regime of Jewish supremacy from the Jordan River to the Mediterranean Sea: This is apartheid
In the entire area between the Mediterranean Sea and the Jordan River, the Israeli regime implements laws, practices and state violence designed to cement the supremacy of one group – Jews – over another – Palestinians. A key method in pursuing this goal is engineering space differently for each group.
