International Day for Palestine: March in London

Newsletter 24/10/25

What is being called the ‘Trump Peace Agreement’ has provided some respite for the people of Gaza, but it isn’t really an agreement and certainly won’t bring lasting peace.

It contains so little detail that it leaves even the most immediate issues unresolved. No one knows who is going to run Gaza, how reconstruction is going to be started or when, if ever, the IDF are going to leave the strip.

It has been honoured mainly in the breach by the Israelis. The IDF has killed well over 100 Palestinians and wounded hundreds more, while only a fraction of available aid has got into the strip since the agreement was announced. 

Crucially it doesn’t deal with the basic demands of the Palestinian people, guarantee an end to military intervention or settlements, or a path to statehood.  In so far as it speaks about the future for the Palestinians it is one of continued colonial subjection, with Trump in ultimate charge of Gaza.

For all these reasons, Stop the War and our Palestine Coalition partners are calling a national demonstration on 29 November, International Day of Solidarity with the Palestinians. We are asking all our groups to build this far and wide so that it is clear that the movement is not going away.
