National Lobby of Parliament for Palestine


Thank you to everyone who supported the National Lobby of Parliament for Palestine on Wednesday 27th November (from 2pm-6pm) hundreds of supporters gathered  in Parliament to call on MPs to take action for Palestinian human rights and against ethnic cleansing and racism. 
  • If you emailed your MP but haven’t heard back then chase them up! Please use the House of Commons for contact details
  • Read our lobby briefing  if you are meeting your MP in their constituency
  • If you haven’t yet passed on your feedback, please do so now using our  online survey












We will be campaigning for:
MPs to challenge ethnic cleansing and discriminatory policies

Ask MPs to support the campaign against the ethnic cleansing of Palestinian Bedouin from their homes and land in the Naqab (also known as the Negev desert) in Israel

Ban settlement goods Israel’s illegal settlements are built on Palestinian land. The UN, EU and UK acknowledge that these settlements are harmful and illegal – but if they are illegal, what are goods produced in settlements doing in our shops?

Respect for prisoners’ rights and an end to Israel’s illegal treatment of Palestinian prisoners, including children

Ask your MP to challenge imprisonment without charge or trial and to press for proper medical care. Ask them to pledge support for an end the abuse of Palestinian children.

An end to the siege on Gaza

The blockade of Gaza started in 2007 and continues today. Israel severely restricts Palestinians’freedom of movement; blocks almost all exports and restricts imports, creating a humanitarian catastrophe. Tell your MP it is time to end the blockade of Gaza.

Let us know your MP said - fill in the feedback form
