In London yesterday, hundreds of people gathered for a rally outside British Broadcasting Corporation (BBC) offices, later swelling to thousands in a march through central London to protest the BBC’s wrong-headed refusal to broadcast a charity appeal to raise emergency funds for people in Gaza.
The crowd was addressed by speakers including Tony Benn, a former Labour cabinet minister, MP George Galloway, Salma Yaqoob, Jeremy Corbyn and Dave Crouch (Media Workers against War).
The Stop The War Coalition, which organised the march, estimates that the ban on broadcasting the appeal could cost up to $14 million in donations.
