"A great turnout in Bellingen on Thursday morning for our first RAR demonstration in support of the Palestinian people. We had fifteen supporters waving their flags and placards, and the support from passing motorists was overwhelmingly positive and enthusiastic.
We are mindful of the fact that the great majority of the people in Gaza are refugees and their descendants from the terrible Nakba of 1948. Their current plight, facing constant bombardment, the destruction of their homes, hospitals, schools, UNRWA facilities and infrastructure is indescribable. There is nowhere safe for them to go, and some 30,000 of them, mostly women and children, have been killed. We need a ceasefire now, and we need a just settlement for the Palestinian people. There can be no peace without justice.
We will demonstrate again in the same spot on Thursday 25th January."
