On the Your Party grapevine today, we have…

- A call to action against Teledyne (in Shipley, Bradford), an arms factory supplying Israel’s genocide who also lobbied ministers to get Palestine Action proscribed
- A call by YP Lancashire to save Lancashire’s care homes and day centres (rally organised by Unison Lancashire)
- A local demo in Edinburgh, outside a court house, in support of ‘placard holders and T-shirt wearers’ protesting the genocide of the people of Gaza
- Two national marches – an ‘ALL OUT’ Scottish national demonstration in Edinburgh, and a national march to end the genocide and stop arming Israel in Central London.
YOUR PARTY BRADFORD
Members of Your Party Bradford and Bradford Friends of Palestine have been organising a demo outside a Teledyne factory in Shipley for over 2yrs now. Teledyne is a US multinational that manufactures surveillance and targeting equipment for Israel’s F-35 jets, and they are directly profiteering from the Gaza genocide. Teledyne is also important because they paid Lord Dannatt to lobby government ministers into taking legal action against protestors, consequently resulting in the proscription of Palestine Action. Bradford Friends of Palestine hold demos outside the Teledyne factory every 1st and 3rd Wednesday of the month, and the next demo is this week on Wednesday 7th January, starting at 12pm. The meeting point is at the corner of Acorn Park and Otley Road, BD17 7SW. Please show up and lend them your support if you can folks.
YOUR PARTY EDINBURGH & LOTHIAN
1) Your Party Edinburgh & Lothian are inviting people to an ‘ALL OUT’ Scottish national demonstration for Palestine, against imperialism and against repression, in Edinburgh, on Saturday 17th January. Event organisers (The Edinburgh Gaza Genocide Emergency Committee), are asking people to assemble at the foot of the mound at 1pm for a march to the Scottish parliament. Guest speaker will be Tadhg Hickey.
2) They’re also letting people know that there’s a demo outside Sherriff’s Court, Chamber Street. Edinburgh, on Wednesday 7th January, starting at 9.30am. Apparently its a ‘court date for placard holders and T-shirt wearers’ protesting the genocide of the people of Gaza.
