National Day of Anti-war Protest

PROTEST - DON'T BOMB SYRIA - SATURDAY 28 NOVEMBER
David Cameron is trying to get support of all the parties for bombing Syria. There could be a vote in parliament as early as next week. It is a matter of urgency to resist this massive pressure to push the country into another savage and disastrous war.

The UK has been bombing countries for a decade and a half, at the cost of millions of lives. Doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results meets Albert Einstein's definition of madness. The US has admitted that, despite having killed thousands of Isis fighters, the fundamentalist forces are now as strong as when the bombing began, demonstrating the futility of trying to bomb an ideology out of existence.

As Jeremy Corbyn has emphasised, it is vital "not to be drawn into responses that feed a cycle of violence and hate."

Don't bomb Syria protest

National Day of Anti-war Protest

Stop the War Coalition are organising a protest against the bombing of Syria outside Downing Street from 12-2pm thisSaturday 28 November. Please invite all your friends to attend this.

We are calling on all our groups to organise protests in their towns and cities on the same day. We need to resist this brutalising and dehumanising spiral of violence.

Lobby, lobby, lobby
In the last couple of days, thousands of people have lobbied their MP using our online lobbying tool, bringing the total so far to over 20,000. Put pressure on MPs not to bomb Syria and to pursue peaceful strategies instead. It takes just 1 minute to lobby your MP using this lobbying toolPLEASE SHARE FAR AND WIDE.

We also need to keep organising lobbies at MPs' constituency offices. Contact the Stop the War office onoffice@stopwar.org.uk or on 020 7561 4830 to let us know of your activities and if you need any assistance.

1 December London: Public MeetingAfter the Paris Attacks: The Case against War

Stop the War is organising a public meeting against the bombing of Syria in London on 1 December.

After the Paris Attacks: The Case against War
Tuesday 1 December | 6.30pm
Conway Hall | 26 Red Lion Square | London WC1R 4R

Speakers will include:
Tariq Ali (via skype)
Salma Yaqoob
Lindsey German

Other speakers tbc.

 Stop the War is asking all its local groups to hold meetings on this issue in the next few weeks.

Cut war, not welfare

The old saying that "war is the health of the state" was confirmed over the weekend as the UK government has suddenly found additional 2 billion pounds which it is going to spend on a sharp increase in mass surveillance of the UK population, in addition to announcing a 12 billion pound purchase of 138 (!) fighter jets. Incidentally, the Tories are seeking to save the same amount of money (£12 billion) by introducing harsh new welfare cuts which will undermine the well-being and the security of the most vulnerable segments of the UK population.

Don't bomb Syria - URGENT APPEAL

You have generously donated to our Syria appeal in recent weeks but we need more funds to sustain and build the campaign against the bombing of Syria. We are asking our supporters to donate generously to fund our campaign against yet another foreign war.

We need the campaign against bombing Syria to be as high profile and far reaching as possible. Thousands have already lobbied their MPs from our website. As well as producing huge amounts of materials, putting on a tour of rallies and film showings and organising street protests, we urgently need your financial support so we can pay for the cost of organising new anti-war public meetings.

·         £25 pays for online lobbying of MPs for a month
·         £50 pays for the printing of 1,000 Syria briefings
·         £300 is enough to book a film screening
·         £600 pays for the booking of a large public meeting venue
·         £1,000 buys 500 placards.

Please give generously. We stopped Cameron pushing through a vote to bomb Syria in 2013, with a strong campaign we can stop him again. Donate here.

Why we need your support


Stop the War has no wealthy backers. Since our founding in 2001, our campaigns and small office have been funded entirely by our members, supporters and affiliated organisations. We need your support.

In the words of writer A. L. Kennedy:
Stop the War is a valuable source of information and a vital voice for peace and creative thinking in the UK and beyond. In a landscape dominated by lazy mainstream journalism, political spin and aggressively entitled commercial interests Stop the War's work is growing all the more precious.

Please help sustain our vital work opposing the UK government war policies, by becoming a member or by making a donation.

Growing opposition to government air strikes in Syria

There is growing opposition to government air strikes in Syria. Over the weekend there were protests and meetings across the country which reflected this opposition and a determination to do something about the government's latest warSee lobby of Hilary Benn MP in his Leeds constituency...

The national demonstration is critical in continuing  to build on this momentum. The reason for a national gathering is to put as much pressure on the government and to get the highest possible profile in the media. A strong national demo will make the point that there is widespread opposition to this latest war. Every day sees the prospect of conflicts between the various powers intervening. It also sees a growth in numbers of casualties. This demonstration is of the greatest importance.

Defend the right to protest against war
There has been a barrage of attacks on Stop the War in recent days, from the media and from some MPs, including Labour MP Tristram Hunt on the BBC's Andrew Marr Show. Hunt's claim that we are 'disreputable' would be a better description of some MPs who have repeatedly voted for war despite all the evidence of the damage it causes. 
Labour's deputy Tom Watson has retracted some of his claims. See Stop the War's statement on Tristram Hunt's accusations...    

We have been accused of bullying and intimidation, a charge that we reject. 
See Were MPs bullied by anti-war protesters before they voted on bombing Syria? 

There was no picket of the Walthamstow MPs house, there was no picket of Labour HQ, there was only a series of protests and lobbying letters. Perhaps what concerns those MPs like Tristram Hunt is that Stop the War has been highly effective over the past weeks in its campaign against the bombing of Syria. He may also be worried that he is in a minority of Labour MPs, as well as among Labour members, and that Jeremy Corbyn represents the overwhelming majority of Labour MPs on this issue. We reject attempts by MPs to stop us protesting and will carry on as is our democratic right. 



Hundreds of new members have joined Stop the War in the last week
In the past week, hundreds of people have joined Stop the War, angered by parliament's decision to take the UK into war for the fourth time this century. Becoming a member of Stop the War is the best way to support our campaign against government war policies. It can cost as little as £2 a month.
