Palestine Solidarity Campaign (PSC)

The Palestine Solidarity Campaign (PSC) is a UK-based organization that advocates for the rights of Palestinians and campaigns against Israeli policies. It organizes protests, campaigns, and educational events to raise awareness about the Palestinian cause. The PSC is currently newsworthy due to the ongoing conflict between Israel and Hamas, which has led to increased pro-Palestinian demonstrations in the UK. Recently, Ben Jamal, the director of the PSC, and another activist were found guilty of breaching protest conditions. Additionally, police in London and Manchester have pledged to crack down on chants of “globalise the intifada” at Gaza war protests, a phrase sometimes used at PSC-organized events. This increased scrutiny and legal action highlight the PSC's prominent role in the UK's Palestine solidarity movement and the controversies surrounding its activities.
