Anti-Jewish boycot picket every Thursday 5pm Oxford Street M&S Marble Arch end.

Just as the Nazis in the 1930s organised boycotts of Jewish goods so Palestinian supporters are doing so today. Boycotts of Israeli goods will not help the situation in the Middle East as many misguided people think. On the contary it will make the situation worse harming both arabs and Israelis who will suffer economically.

Palestinian supportters have been picketing Marble Arch Marks and Spencers for months handing out anti-Israeli leaflets and abusing staff and shoppers at M&S with insults and threats. In response supporters of Israel have mounted a counter picket every week for the past few months to counter the lies they put out and explain to the public why a boycott would be counter-productive. Join us on our weekly picket, we have had a fantasitc response so far with lots of words of encouragement from the public and from staff at M&S.
