Isabel Kelly now reading a statement by the Parents Circle– Families Forum Parents Circle

“As Palestinians and Israelis, this statement is a testament to our joint determination to end the occupation, the pain, the violence and suffering that has plagued the region for so long.'

Record turnout at the National Alternative Remembrance Ceremony in London right now- veterans, families with children, peace campaigners- many people who were on the #ceasefire demonstration yesterday…
#WhitePoppies #RememberThemAll

Richard Kuper from Jews for Justice for Palestinians- now speaking at the National Alternative #Remembrance Ceremony
“What we are witnessing in Gaza is, in my view and the view of many others, a genocide… We are witnessing the destruction of Palestinian society…”

“We were told you can’t have a demonstration on Armistice Day. When better to have a demonstration for an armistice than Armistice Day?”

Pat Gaffney, vice president of Pax Christi England and Wales, speaking now at the National Alternative #Remembrance Ceremony
“For me, remembrance of war calls me to peacemaking… I’ve learnt we don’t simply want to say ‘no more war’. We want to say ‘yes to nonviolence and peacemaking’.”

Today we are gathered at Tavistock Square, in London, to remember all victims of war, of all nationalities, and commit to building a more peaceful world. #RememberThemAll #whitepoppy

Great turnout today for the National Alternative Remembrance Ceremony in London. We have gathered to remember all victims of war. #WhitePoppy wreaths will be laid on the memorial stone for #ConscientiousObjectors

#RememberThemAll

The unfortunate coincidence of #WPSweek 2023 with the escalation of violence in Palestine & Israel stresses the urgency in resolving the persistent conflict. The #UNSC must act on its rhetoric & resolutions to protect civilians.
