Around 30,000 people massed in Liverpool this afternoon to march from the city’s Lime Street station to the Labour party’s waterfront conference venue in support of the Palestinian people against genocide – and against genocide-enabler Keir Starmer.

Liverpool: against Starmer, against the Labour conference, against genocide

The atmosphere was loud and proud, but entirely peaceful – with the local police force barely in evidence – as a mass gathering of all creeds, colours and ages joined against the UK government’s collaboration in Israel’s Holocaust of extermination and cruelty in Gaza, in a march whose front was far out of sight before the tail end even started moving off its St George’s Plateau starting point:

The boisterous gathering was a far cry from the arrival – usually solitary, rarely even in dribs and drabs – of the stony-faced suits arriving for Labour’s conference.

The party had arranged a ‘zero-emissions shuttle’ to take conference attendees to the venue but it’s a good thing the bus was zero-emissions, otherwise the carbon per passenger of the usually empty eco-bus would have been horrendous.
