BBC Leeds Gaza Appeal Protest this Wednesday
Pro-humanity | 25.01.2009 22:56 | Palestine
In response to the BBC's hugely biased decision not to air the Emergency Appeal for Gaza, the following protest will take place on Wednesday. Tell your friends. Bring things to wave and make noise with.
Rally outside the BBC in Leeds
The BBC must show the Gaza Emergency Appeal!
5 to 7pm Wednesday 28th January
Outside BBC Broadcasting Centre
2 St. Peters Sq, Leeds, West Yorkshire, LS9 8AH
Opposite Leeds Bus Station
The BBC is refusing to show an appeal for Gaza because it claims this would infringe upon its neutral position. This is unprecedented and this is in no way a “neutral” move. Please join us at the BBC's regional offices in Leeds to make this message clear: the decision is unacceptable, and the appeal must be shown!
The protest is timed to coincide with final preparations for, and the live filming of, Look North.
Supported by York Palestine Solidarity Campaign and Officers of University of Bradford Union.
