Protestor with painted face at March for Gaza rally against Israeli attacks and biased BBC reporting
The march for Gaza started with a protest at Broadcasting House and a rally in Portland Place to draw attention to the biased reporting of the Israeli attack by the BBC and their refusal to broadcast the Disasters Emergency Committee appeal for humanitarian relief for Gaza. Marchers called for an end to the blockade and arms sales to Israel, for a free Palestine and for Israeli war criminals to be brought to justice. The event started with a press conference on the pavement outside Broadcasting House, after which a deputation led by Tony Benn delivered a letter of protest to the BBC. The we went a hundred yards or so up the road for a lengthy rally, before starting the march past Broadcasting House to Trafalgar Square.
