We are appalled to hear that the Metropolitan Police have refused permission for the Palestine movement to march to commemorate Nakba day on 16 May on its proposed route and instead given over the political centre of London to a hate march called by racist thug ‘Tommy Robinson’ in response. The far right has targeted the Palestine movement before. They …

On 14th February PSC held its Annual General Meeting in London. Last year we had our largest ever turnout at an AGM and this year we surpassed that once again, with activists travelling from as far afield as the Orkney Islands to take part. PSC members, affiliates, and observers joined together to reflect on the past 12 months of our campaigns and to collectively decide on our …
Israel and the US are wreaking havoc across Iran with their indiscriminate bombing, including the destruction of schools and medical facilities. Palestinians know all too well the horror of being targeted in this way and the twisted hypocrisy of Western governments who speak about international law and human rights whilst trampling all over them. The British government’s claims to be supporting ‘defensive’ …
Today was due to see the start of the trial of PSC Director Ben Jamal and Stop The War Coalition Vice-Chair Chris Nineham.
