Thousands of protesters will take to the streets of central London today as a Pro-Palestine rally and march in solidarity with oppressed women around the world are held. The demonstration organised by the Palestine Solidarity Campaign (PSC) will take place in Whitehall from midday as a fixed rally following the row with the Met Police over its route.
Protesters targeting the BBC were planning to gather in Portland Place before marching to Whitehall but the Met blocked the planned route after concerns about the proximity to a synagogue. A police presence of over 1,000 officers has been promised to ensure no-one breaches conditions put on the protest.
