M&S Oxford Street (Marble Arch end) Free Palestine! Boycott M&S! Boycott Israeli goods! Music, speeches, open mic – All welcome Thursday 4 July 6-8pm Free all Palestinian prisoners! No normal sport in an abnormal society! Mahmood Sarsak, a Palestinian footballer, spent three years in prison without charge or trial and went on hunger strike for 92 days in order to obtain his release in July 2012. The goalkeeper of the Palestinian Olympic team, Omar Abu Rouis, 23, and the Ramallah FC player, Mohammed Namer, 22, remain imprisoned in Israeli gaols. Mahmood Sarsak has been in Britain on a speaking tour as part of the Boycott UEFA Under 21 football tournament which took place in Israel in June. It is clear that a state which abducts athletes to use as political prisoners should not be allowed to take part in or accommodate international sporting events. Join us in the now monthly protests outside of Marks & Spencers, demanding an end to British corporate support for Israel and freedom for all Palestinian political prisoners.
