The recent Gaza ceasefire has marked a new phase for the Palestinian movement.
It was incredibly moving to see Palestinians returning to what was left of their homes in the Gaza Strip, an area that has suffered more bombing in two years than the combined bombings of London, Dresden, and Hamburg during the Second World War.
A massive pro-Palestine demonstration was held in London, where 600,000 people marched with a sense of hope for the short-term improvement of lives in Gaza, and a determination to continue campaigning for solidarity with the Palestinians.
The lives of the people of Gaza would improve, they would not face imminent death from bombing or starvation, and they could begin to rebuild their lives.
The marchers were driven by a sense of hope and determination to fight for the rights of the Palestinian people.
