PSC welcomes the report of the UN Commission of Inquiry concluding that Israel has committed genocide against Palestinians in the Gaza Strip. Whilst this had already been asserted by a vast array of legal experts, human rights groups and scholars, this report confirms this conclusion with additional evidence and the authority of an independent investigation …
Nearly two years into Israel’s genocide against the Palestinian people in Gaza, confirmed as such by UN this week, the British government is facing growing public outrage at its refusal to take any meaningful action to end its complicity in these crimes. Instead, the government seems determined to use draconian police powers to crack down …

It shamefully frames the Palestinian right to self-determination within the context of Israel’s actions, rather than as an inalienable right of the Palestinian people. Tuesday’s announcement came in part …
Palestine Solidarity Campaign (PSC) utterly condemns the grotesque decision to proscribe Palestine Action as terrorists, which threatens all of our freedoms and democratic rights.
