Anxious to do something about Gaza?
Like several of my readers, I am a supporter of the Palestinian Solidarity Campaign. I often get useful information from the PSC about Palestine including Gaza. I would like to share this recent email with you. You might like to act upon it according to your inclinations.

Academics Dr Karma Nabulsi, Dr Ghada Karmi and Professor Steven Rose and human rights lawyer Sir Geoffrey Bindman QC also signed the letter, along with 17 MPs and two peers. 35,500 of you also signed and the letter was hand delivered to 10 Downing Street by MPs Jeremy Corbyn, Diane Abbott and Jim Fitzpatrick, the film director Ken Loach, and Hugh Lanning, Chair, and Sarah Colborne, Director, of Palestine Solidarity Campaign.
