These marches really don't seem to be having any impact, do they?

I went on two, or possibly three, can't remember now, but still the situation in Gaza is heartbreaking.

Meanwhile we have a change of government, which seems to have made not a jot of difference so far as this issue is concerned.

I just despair really.

I left the Labour Party and I didn't vote for them, both because of Starmer, but I honestly can't see that "telling Starmer" by going on a march is going to help change anything, though it might make me feel better.

Sorry. I'm open to being persuaded otherwise. I admire the people who are persisting.

Keep the faith Sue. Although the recent ICJ decision was a non-binding opinion, Netanyahu is under increasing pressure both at home and abroad. The Labour government has dropped the tories' challenge to the ICC's arrest warrant case against Netanyahu and others. We need to keep up the worldwide pressure.

It is very hard to be optimistic with the world as it is at the moment, but we advocates for peace, humanity, human rights and respect of International Law must try.

I do agree we must try, but I suppose it's about where we each focus our energies.

If I thought that march had any hope of changing anything, I would have been on it.

I'm wondering if some sort of letter or petition to Starmer signed by thousands of people and widely publicised might have more effect?

But easy to say, and I have too much on my plate at the moment to start one myself

    • Hello! We are relocating abroad and so will be withdrawing our two children (ages 4 and 6) from St Dunstan’s College (Catford). If any family is considering enrolling children of a similar age, now would be an excellent opportunity—we’re required to pay full‑term fees unless the places are taken. Please get in touch if you’re interested or know someone who might be. Thank you!
    • Hi  I really thought I'd seen a more recent post on the forum about home education meet ups. I can't find it though. Hope some of these might provide leads. https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/137603-home-schooling-advice-anyone-wants-to-do-it-together/#comment-1092093 Very old post but group seems still to exist: https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/92044-home-education-local-group/#comment-954837 You could try contacting this forum member: https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/325368-classroom-support-for-home-education-community/#comment-1621064 Two of these left for right now: https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/events/event/1025-🌟-teens-11-try-painting-sculpture-street-art-at-holiday-workshops/
    • Thanks for your reply. I’ve subscribed to Ancestry a few times in the past but felt I wasn’t using it enough to warrant keeping up the subscription.    
    • Hi, I saw your post and just wanted to say that the incident you’re referring to did happen in the late 1980s at Dawson’s Heights. The person involved was named Carl Salawa, and he had just turned 18 years old at the time. Like you, I haven’t been able to find any news articles or official reports about it, If anyone remembers anything more about that time or incident, I’d really appreciate hearing about it. Thanks for sharing what you were told—it means a lot to know others remember.
