It was a busy day for activism in Cambridge City on Saturday June 5th, with Campalsoc staging a solidarity vigil in response to the week's events, while on the other side of town, and then later in the day a party took place in protest at the forced closure of Strawberry Fair, but more about that soon in another item.





As it came to light on Saturday morning that yet another blockade busting aid vessel had been boarded by the IDF, Cambridge people came out in solidarity with the Palestinians and in tribute to the activists who were mercilessly shot dead by IDF troops whilst boarding the activists' ship a few days earlier.

As ever, the activists demonstrated poise and dignity in their response to yet another act of Israeli state brutality.

Also in attendance was local MP Julian Huppert.
