On Wednesday, hundreds of pro-Palestine activists erected a blockade against Britain providing military aid to Israel in its fight with Hamas terrorists in Gaza. They protested by blocking the entrance to a British government department creating in central London.
An estimated 600 activists gathered outside of the Department , for Business and Trade ( DBT ) at the Old Admiralty Office in the centre of London, preventing civil servants from entering the building and clashing with police, GB News reports.
In addition to a ceasefire call for Israel and Hamas extremists, activists were seen waving flags to the Israeli state.
The opposition was organised by the , Workers for a Free Palestine as its actions for May Day, an old Continental trip which was inc- opted by socialists following an 1889 gathering of the , Marxist International Socialist Congress , in Paris.  , The communist party also organised marches in Lancashire, Scotland, and Wales on Wednesday.
” If arms company bosses and Britain’s political elite wo n’t impose an arms embargo, we, the workers, will continue enforcing it from below”, Workers for a Free Palestine said on social media.

On social media, images of police colliding with some activists led to at least three detention. A Met official said , according to communist Novaramedia:  ,” We are policing a protest in Admiralty Place and Horse Guards Parade. After protesters obstructing a tower, officials made three detention. Protesters had “abide by the law.”
It comes as a group of student protesters are systematically censoring universities, starting with Ivy League Colombia and Harvard last week in the United States, and fresh radicals in France are also joining the action.
Pro-Palestine activists occupied the prestigious Sciences Po research university in Paris over the past week with the support of Jean-Luc Mélenchon’s far-left La France Insmouise ( LFI ) party and imposed a ban on classes and exams on the university’s grounds, obstructing the Sorbonne.
The LFI leader in the French National Assembly, Mathilde Panot, vowed to continue supporting the violent pro-Palestinian demonstrations, saying over the weekend,” I will help them as many times as they do it, and we will be that every time the people move to help the identical dignity of human beings.”
