Last weekend there was a pro-Palestine demonstration that took place in Glasgow’s city centre. Large crowds gathered to show their support for Palestine. However, there have been mixed opinions across the University of Glasgow.
The Israeli-Palestinian situation has been a contested discussion throughout the UK, with students and general population supporting both sides of the war. In an open letter to Glasgow University, the University’s Conservative society asked for the university to support to Israel by ”lighting the main campus building in the colours of the Israeli flag, to show solidarity with students on campus, and to memorialise the more than 900 lives taken in the name of hate.”
Tomorrow’s walk is set to take place from the University of Glasgow main gates starting at 12pm.
