Labour Friends of Palestine & the Middle East


Labour Friends of Palestine & the Middle East is a parliamentary group affiliated to the British Labour Party that promotes support for Palestine and campaigns for "peace and justice in the Middle East through the implementation of international law and respect for human rights".
