Hilary Benn faces protests and lobbies for his support of war in Syria
Hilary Benn MP, lobbied by Peter Brierley, father of UK soldier killed in Iraq.
Hilary Benn, who led Labour MPs supporting David Cameron’s drive to war in Syria, has faced multiple protests and lobbies in his Leeds constituency. He was not persuaded when lobbied by Peter Brierley, father of soldier killed in Iraq, nor by an eleventh hour open letter from students and staff at Leeds University. Leeds Coalition Against War reports below on the lobbies and protests.
In a week which has seen the horror of the British state partaking in yet another imperial war in the Middle East, there has also been mass protests against militarism and resistance from below which gives hope – huge demonstrations of thousands of people in London, Bristol, Manchester and so on.
In Leeds, we have had four anti-war protests in the last week alone, including a successful lobby of Hilary ‘Bomber’ Benn, which received national attention and coverage.
Last Saturday 28 November, as the rushed drive to war gathered pace, Leeds Coalition Against the War organised a protest at 12noon before the climate change demonstration taking place later that day on Briggate – which saw about fifty or so people brave the appalling weather to protest – and then join the climate change march, where the Stop the War ‘Don’t Bomb Syria’ banners were widely welcomed and appreciated. This was part of a national day of action called by the Stop the War Coalition which saw protests across the country.
