🔥 STOP STARVING GAZA - POTS & PANS PROTEST – THIS FRIDAY 🔥

Join us as we raise the noise in Newport, alongside protests across the UK.

We demand real action to stop the starvation & genocide in Gaza — not empty words.

Our MPs must answer: *What have you done to end the suffering?*

Labour is feeling the pressure. Let’s turn it up.

We welcome recent statements by are MPs — but where are the sanctions, the full arms embargo, the cut in diplomatic support?

Our MPs and UK Government must act now — push for aid access, sanctions, and accountability.

All out this Friday. Make them hear us.

We asked young people in Gaza to send us statements that we could share with our MPs Jessica Morden MP and Ruth Jones MP

Israel’s War on Gaza Is a War on Children.

Over 20,000 Palestinian children have been killed in Israel’s ongoing assault on Gaza.

Hospitals and schools lie in ruins. Starvation is being weaponised as a tool of war.

The International Court of Justice has ruled there is a plausible risk of genocide.

Yet the UK government continues to arm Israel, in violation of its own laws and moral obligations.

The International Criminal Court has issued arrest warrants for Israel’s Prime Minister and Defence Minister.

Silence is complicity.
The UK’s Strategic Export Licensing Criteria clearly prohibit arms sales where there is a “clear risk” they could be used in serious violations of international humanitarian law. That risk is no longer theoretical—it is overwhelmingly documented.

* UK-manufactured F-35 components are being used in bombing raids on Gaza.
* Oxfam, Amnesty International, and the UN Human Rights Council all call for a full arms embargo, citing credible evidence of war crimes.
* Even Prime Ministers Thatcher, Blair, Brown, and Cameron imposed arms embargoes during past Israeli military operations.

Yet this government—your government—refuses to act. It has even faced judicial reviews over its decision to continue these arms exports.

By continuing to arm Israel, despite overwhelming evidence and legal warnings, the UK risks direct complicity in genocide. The UN has warned of atrocity crimes, while the British public watches in horror. 57% of the public backs a full arms embargo.

We call on you to act:

* Publicly demand an immediate arms embargo. No more empty statements.
* Challenge the government’s “lawless exception”. No more procedural delays, no more saying “it’s terrible” while doing nothing.
* Attend our rally this Thursday and stand publicly for Palestine.

History will remember this moment.

Will you be remembered for your silence—or for upholding the law and defending human life?

The time for silence is over.

Join us. Speak out. Or resign. No government position is more important than justice, international law, or the lives of thousands of children.

*Why We Campaign*

Join us in demanding the Wales Pension Partnership divest from companies enabling settlements, apartheid, war crimes, and genocide in Palestine.

*Why It Matters*

The Wales Pension Partnership has invested £1.1 billion in companies tied to human rights abuses. Pensions should not fund disaster, oppression, or war crimes.

*Take Action*

Demand ethical, just, and responsible pension investments. Join our demo and email your councillors

👉https://linktr.ee/psc_cymru

*Pam Rydym yn Ymgyrchu*

Ymunwch â ni i fynnu bod Partneriaeth Pensiwn Cymru yn dadfuddsoddi o gwmnïau sydd yn galluogi setliadau, apartheid, troseddau rhyfel, a hil-laddiad ym Mhalestina.

*Pam Mae'n Bwysig*

Mae Partneriaeth Pensiwn Cymru wedi buddsoddi £1.1 biliwn mewn cwmnïau sy’n gysylltiedig â cham-drin hawliau dynol. Ni ddylai pensiynau ariannu trychinebau, gormes na throseddau rhyfel.

*Gweithredwch*

Galwch am fuddsoddiadau pensiwn moesegol, cyfiawn a chyfrifol. Ymunwch â'n protest, ac e-bostiwch eich cynghorwyr:

PLEASE SHARE 🙏

🚨 **Urgent Action Needed!** 🚨

Gwent Councils have invested millions from their pension fund in arms companies whose weapons are currently bombing Rafah.

They've also invested in Israel's largest arms company and other firms on the UN sanction list.

This must stop!
