For nearly six months, a group of peaceful protestors have maintained a vigil outside Anthony Albanese’s electorate office in Marrickville. The vigil is noteworthy in that the organisers, their families and attendees are diverse in their religious beliefs and cultural heritage. Importantly, the organisers and many of the protestors live in the local electorate of Grayndler.

Six months on, they are still seeking a meeting with their local member of parliament to discuss Australia’s obligation in preventing the further suffering of Palestinians which includes forced starvation, mass displacement and the unprecedented violence in Occupied Territories of Palestine and Gaza.

The Council can only imagine the anguish, grief and sense of helplessness felt by Australians who have loved ones trapped in the Occupied Territories of Palestine and Gaza.

JOIN US TO DEMAND THE PEACEFUL VIGIL OUTSIDE MR ALBANESE'S OFFICE CAN STAY AND THAT MR ALBANESE MEETS WITH HIS CONSTITUENTS BEFORE THE NEXT SITTING WEEK OF PARLIAMENT.
