In Edinburgh, where police on motorbikes redirected traffic to help facilitate the peaceful march, Iman, a Palestinian woman, said people in Gaza “need a right to freedom, and refugees need the right to return”. Others had attended in the hope a strong turnout might precipitate a new political approach to the Israel-Palestine conflict. Tailor Shikha, 23, was not over confident. “If not, just please stop the siege of Gaza. Please.” Waving hers proudly was Ruth Bennett, 72, and her daughter Tammy, who was attending her first demonstration at the age of 50.

Close by stood Ruaiya, a 16-year-old London student, energetically waving her flag and eager to send a message to the home secretary. “For me the flag is a symbol of peace, of human rights. A criminal offence? Genocide, ethnic cleansing are criminal offences.” I thank Scotland for not raising the Israeli flag. I thank Scotland for standing in solidarity, unconditional solidarity with my people. I thank Scotland for its strength to find a safe haven for refugees. Next year will no doubt be dominated by the biggest sporting event in the calendar of the nation’s favourite sport – Euro 2024!

At The Flag Shop we have a great range of Euro 2024 flags and bunting to help you get into the spirit. And let’s not forget, the World Cup in 2026 is not that far away! I used my Sizzix Big Shot Plus, Sizzix Bigz Alphabet Uppercase Die – Sassy Serif Letter “E” and “N”, a vintage map, coloured card, glue dots and a couple of vintage knitting needles.I’m happy that other people are here too because I want to show that there are people in the UK who care.” Nearby protesters then shoved police and threw objects, including bottles, at them, the PA agency reported.

Speaking to the Echo at the protest, one protester said: “It’s just not fair and just. Everyone’s life should be the same. Everyone’s life should be equal.” In Manchester, hundreds of protesters waving “freedom for Palestine” banners marched through the city centre to the beating of drums and chants of “free, free Palestine”. Speeches were made at Platt Fields park before people marched through Rusholme to St Peter’s Square.

Upon arrival, some activists “took the knee” and held a minute’s silence in solidarity with the Palestinian people. The home secretary, Suella Braverman, had said earlier in the week that waving a Palestinian flag might be a criminal offence. Few at the march in London seemed to take such a threat seriously, with a sea of Palestinian flags visible as the crowd moved slowly down Regent Street towards Whitehall. War flags past and present are available at The Flag Shop. We have a great range of military flags available to buy online including the Ensign of the RAF and British Royal Navy flag, available in sizes three feet, five feet and eight feet. Also available a great range of historical flags, including historical ensigns and Royal Banners, and US military including the US Army flag and US Air Force flags. A small range of our military designs are also available as bunting and hand wavers. Other Flags Thousands of people march through central London calling for a free Palestine. Photograph: Antonio Olmos/The Observer Another attender, a Labour party member who did not wish to give his name for fear of ramifications from the party, told PA: “I’m here because there are voices in the mainstream of UK politics that are on Palestine’s side – not the UK government and unfortunately not the opposition.
In Edinburgh, thousands staged an impromptu march to the Scottish parliament, chanting “Free, free Palestine!” and “From the river to the sea, Palestine will be free” as they made their way up The Mound and along Edinburgh’s famous Royal Mile. As well as world flags, you can also buy UK flags, including country and county flags.

Demonstrations were also held in Aberdeen, Dundee and Glasgow, where Bath Street had to be closed due to the number of people attending. Shaaista Bhutta and Muzaffar Yousaf, the parents of the Scottish first minister, Humza Yousaf, are understood to be among those who attended the rally.
Get to know us
In Liverpool, several hundred people waved Palestinian flags as they made their way to the offices of BBC Radio Merseyside. Earlier, the pro-Palestinian group Palestine Action splattered the national headquarters of the BBC with red paint in protest over the broadcaster’s coverage of the Israel-Hamas war, which it said was “manufacturing consent for Israel’s war crimes”. Elsewhere among the crowd, Shansul, 41, from east London said he had brought along his two children, aged nine and 13, to learn “the values of solidarity and the importance of standing up for the oppressed”. I knew they would be making lots of sandcastles so I wanted to make them their own personalised sand castle flags to put on them.
