Coming Events

Protest for Palestine

Saturday 26 September at 12pm we are marching for Palestine in Liverpool on the eve of the Labour Party conference - Burnham's first as prime minister.

And on 10 October the next national march will take place in London marking the three year anniversary of the genocide and coinciding with the international day for Palestine.

International Anti-War Movement on tour

In June, 3,000 activists from around Europe and beyond gathered in London for the second international conference against war. This tremendously inspiring event called for concerted international action against the terrifying drive to war.

To follow up, Stop the War has organised a tour of regional rallies, featuring some key speakers from the international movement. The aim is to demand our government drops its commitment to increase arms spending, to popularise the call for welfare not warfare and to build for action against militarism on the international days of action, 30 October, 20 November and 21 November.

Speakers include

Jérôme Legavre, MP, La France Insoumise / Ulrike Eifler German Trade Unions Against War / Zarah Sultana MP / John Rees, Stop the War / Fran Heathcote, PCS / Yasmine Adam, Muslim Association of Britain / Andrew Feinstein, author and activist / Danièle Obono MP, La France Isnoumise / Lindsey German, Stop the War / Peter Mertens, General Secretary, Belgian Workers' Party / Alex Gordon, RMT / Narzanin Massoumi, British Iranian academic / Andrew Murray, Stop the War / Kate Hudson, Vice President CND / Salma Yaqoob, political activist / Chris Nineham, Stop the War / Roxy Farhadi, student activist / Micaela Tracey-Ramos, Vice President, Unison.
