London: Christian Bloc to join National March for Palestine

Christians For Palestine state: 'The events of the last three years in Palestine have been horrific for everyone. The people of Palestine both in Gaza and the West Bank are still living under daily terror. We continue to feel a deep sorrow and have a strong desire to speak out in favour of a just and lasting peace. UK government policy is evolving and it is as important as ever to make your support for Palestine loud and clear.

'Please join us in the Christian bloc on the National March for Palestine this Saturday, 10 October 2026. Bring your friends and your homemade banners or borrow one of ours.

Among the Christian Bloc will be: Westminster Justice & Peace, Pax Christi, Christian CND, Quakers, representatives from various religious orders, parishes and other groups.
