Invite your contacts!



Dear friends,

Kensington and Chelsea Council have invited the Israeli Ambassador for a diplomatic reception at Kensington Town Hall on Monday 9 February, despite Labour councillors tabling a motion calling for the invitation to be withdrawn. A London-wide protest has been called outside Kensington Town Hall, when the reception takes place at 5.30pm on 9 February.

The Israeli Ambassador should not be feted at diplomatic receptions but expelled from Britain for the war crimes perpetrated by the country he represents.

Join the demonstration to stop the Israeli ambassador!

In solidarity,

Stop the War Coalition.

Internationalist!

No Grand Reception for the Israeli Ambassador


On Monday 9th February the London Borough of Kensington and Chelsea are holding a lavish reception for diplomats at Kensington Town Hall - their special guest for the night will be the Israeli Ambassador.

Palestine Solidarity Campaign, along with Stop the War Coalition and British Muslim Initiative are asking all London and South East supporters to come to the town hall and show your disgust at the invitation.

Londoners who oppose Israel's barbarity in Gaza need to make clear that while the Council lays on a sumptuous display of fine wine and food for their specially invited guest, half a million Gazans will be spending the night without electricity or running water. Many more now live in the most appalling conditions with open sewers, a lack of food and medical supplies.

That is why this event is so important - Kensington and Chelsea Council may be trying to normalise relations with Israel but we have to make clear that there can be no normalisation until the people of Gaza obtain the justice that is rightfully theirs.

Demonstration - Monday 9 February 5.30pm - 8.00pm.

Kensington Town Hall, Hornton Street,
Kensington, London, W8 7NX
