The UNISON West Sussex branch is affiliated to the Palestine Solidarity Campaign (PSC), as is the union at a national level.
The Palestine Solidarity Campaign has organised a lobby day at Westminster Hall, London on Wednesday 27th November 2-5pm.
This is an opportunity to discuss important issues with your MP around the UK’s involvement in the ongoing crisis in Palestine including:
- Ending arms sales to Israel
- The UK government calling for a ceasefire.
- Ensuring humanitarian aid reaches the Palestinian population.
Branch members who can get to London tomorrow are encouraged to use the link below to register to attend. This will then let your MP know that you would like to meet with them on the lobby day.
Lobby Day Registration: Wednesday 27th November 2024
If you are a West Sussex branch member intending to go to the Lobby Day than please let us know and we can put you in contact with members from Worthing and Adur Palestine Solidarity Campaign who will be travelling up to London by train on the day.
