00:00Millions of ordinary British people hate marchers.
00:04Shame!
00:06What they will never understand is the love
00:10that billions of people around the world,
00:12they never learn their lesson,
00:14that we have something more powerful.
00:17To dispossess us of our homes and destroy.
00:23It's now one year since what is happening now is a genocide.
00:28The Israeli occupation has gone on for so long
00:32and it wasn't surprising, quite frankly,
00:34that something had to happen, something had to give.
00:37And it's been a year now since the Palestinians have been suffering.
00:41The world seems to be very silent about this.
00:44So it's important that we are out here demonstrating
00:47and remembering, remembering all the people that we've lost.
00:50It's really important for me to come here tonight
00:53to honour all of our fallen martyrs
00:55from the past year of genocide,
00:58both in Gaza and in Lebanon.
01:00It's been really harrowing
01:03watching all of the dead children every day
01:06and I just came here to pay my respects today.
01:09We're enjoying our life.
01:11We protest!
01:13And hundreds more who have been injured
01:16because Palestinian people are not just numbers.
01:19But the fight remains,
01:21represented in many cities around the world and in the UK.
01:26And advocacy work.
