Visit to Keir Starmer MP

CADFA members and visitors from Palestine visited our MP Keir Starmer to talk about the situation in Palestine and to ask for his support in the campaign for visa equality. We argue that while Israel holds on to Palestinian land and builds on it on defiance of International law, the UK should either treat Palestinians like Israelis (no visas needed for UK) or Israelis like Palestinians (long, expensive and complicated UK visa system). Current UKBA rules reproduce the apartheid system drawn in Palestine by the Israelis and we should push to change them. Keir agreed with the arguments and we hope for his help.
