Oi Burnham – be better!
Marchers celebrated the departure of now-ex PM Keir Starmer and challenged his successor Andy Burnham over his own links to the Israel lobby and whether he will be any better:

Protesters carried giant banknotes linking Starmer’s ministers and advisers to Israel-linked donations, and the UK’s collaboration in Israel’s Gaza genocide:

They reminded onlookers of the fundamentally racist nature of an ideology that approves the theft and colonisation of a land from its indigenous people – and of the bloodshed it inevitably causes:

And they opposed UK collaboration in the illegal US-Israel war, while former Labour leader Jeremy Corbyn reminded the crowd of the extent of UK-Israel collusion:
Free Palestine. End Israel’s genocide and occupation.
