A well-natured demonstration in bitingly cold conditions held banners and placards denouncing the sale of goods that benefit what, if it weren't the West's pet government in the middle-east, might be called a "Rogue State".

Those inside the meeting report that Morrisons management acknowledged the need to check their supply chains for human rights violations amongst other things, and to continue the dialogue, far more encouraging than a "we give consumers choice" argument. This brings Morrison's to the same point in dialogue as Sainsburys and Tescos, but a long way off Co-op, who have begun removing products and sourcing Palestinian products in some stores.

A meeting is not, in itself, normally a success, but given just how difficult this one was to arrange, and the need to more-or-less declare all out war on Morrison's before it took place, this one might count.

There is plenty to build on in this campaign, and protesters vowed to return and to continue pressuring the North's "local" Supermarket until it removes all Israeli produce from its shelves. Other actions are planned as the national week of Supermarket Boycott Actions comes to a close, and further reports are awaited.
