Francesca Albanese, the United Nations Special Rapporteur for the Occupied Palestinian Territories addresses the opening plenary of Counterfire’s Revolution! May Day Weekender

Before you go

The ongoing genocide in Gaza, Starmer’s austerity and the danger of a resurgent far right demonstrate the urgent need for socialist organisation and ideas. Counterfire has been central to the Palestine revolt and we are committed to building mass, united movements of resistance. Become a member today and join the fightback.
