UK Friends of Standing Together launched in House of Commons – join us again on Friday 15 December!

Thanks to everyone who attended the public launch of our network in the House of Commons last night (Monday 11 December). We were honoured to host Rula Daood and Uri Weltmann from Standing Together.

Huge thanks to all who joined our fantastic launch in Parliament last night with @DaoodRula & @uriweltmann from @omdimbeyachad and MPs @alexsobel & @NadiaWhittomeMP.

I was honoured to host @uriweltmann and @DaoodRula in Parliament, alongside @alexsobel and @omdimbeyachadUK.

It was an honour to host @uriweltmann and @DaoodRula of @omdimbeyachad with @NadiaWhittomeMP at the launch of @omdimbeyachadUK

Their message of unity and hope in the face of the politics of fear was hugely inspiring.

For peace to succeed we need voices like theirs pic.twitter.com/NCXd5ge1Gz
