Stop the inhuman treatment of Palestinians in Gaza
Don’t let the inhuman treatment of Palestinians in Gaza go unnoticedJoin the protest on Saturday 18th January from 12-2pm outside the Israeli Embassy
A revealing and heartbreaking blog in the Independent reveals just how unbearable – and unsustainable – life in Gaza has become: most of the day is spent in darkness due to electricity cuts; rubbish piling up due to the lack of fuel to remove it; sewage filling the streets, and on-going Israeli attacks during the night.
Please make sure that we have a huge expression of our anger at the Israeli Government for bringing this desperate situation onto Palestinian people in Gaza; the Egyptian Government for cutting off the lifeline that had existed via Rafah; and our own Government for allowing this suffering to continue.
Make sure that you join us on Saturday 18th January to demonstrate your solidarity. This will be the 5th anniversary of the end of the 2008/9 war on Gaza. Show the people of Palestine we will never forget.

Antony Gormley, Jemima Khan, Mike Leigh, Peter Gabriel and Brian Eno were just some of over 50 artists, journalists and campaigners who signed the letter against the Prawer Plan, published in the Guardian.
You can join them, and PSC Chair Hugh Lanning, and PSC Patrons Julie Christie, Ken Loach, Jeremy Corbyn MP, Bruce Kent, Rodney Bickerstaffe, William Dalrymple, Pat Gaffney, Prof. Nur Masalha, Dr. Karma Nabulsi, Dr Salman Abu Sitta, Professor Steven Rose and Honorary President, Betty Hunter, by signing the letter.
