Waltham Forest Palestine Solidarity activists and their French guests join the G4S protest



Waltham Forest PSC  (WFPSC) participated yesterday in a regular quarterly protest in front of G4S UK HQ in Victoria, organised by' Inminds' in support of Palestinian political prisoners on hunger strike in Israeli jails.  G4S is involved in managing Israeli prisons where Palestinian prisoners, including almost 200 children, are held in contravention to the host of International Laws. One of the G4S's main claims to infamy is a failure to deliver a multimillion security contract for the London Olympic Games. G4S activities in the occupied Palestine also include providing security in the illegal Israeli settlements and in some of the massive network of checkpoints across the West Bank, which prevents Palestinians to access their land, hospitals, schools etc.  WFPSC guests Jean-Guy Greilsamer, French BDS activist and the former co-president of union Juive Française pour la Paix  (French Jews for Peace)  and his wife Sabine joined yesterday’s protest.
