After events in Gaza in recent days in which Israeli attacks have killed 115 Palestinians and wounded 350, the British Muslim initiative, Palestine Solidarity Campaign, Palestinian Forum in Britain and Palestine Return Centre called for an emergency demonstration opposite Downing St on Saturday afternoon.

Despite very short notice, there were still a resaonable number to protest opposite Downing Street, although I passed quite a few going home on my way there as I arrived late, having been taking pictures elsewhere.
The ban on megaphones didn't stop demonstrators making a noise, and some of the younger demonstrators present took a turn in leading the chanting of slogans.
More about this – and many more pictures – on My London Diary soon.
