The Palestine Solidarity Campaign (PSC) has commissioned a position paper on the legal consequences of breaking international law.
Their work conveniently reinforces our WS-Divest campaign.
PSC have issued a legal notice to every council in England & Wales administering a Local Government Pension Scheme (LGPS) fund, outlining that they must take steps to divest from companies enabling and profiting from Israel’s genocide, military occupation and apartheid against Palestinians.
The notice, written by legal experts, outlines that through its genocide in Gaza, its illegal military occupation of Palestinian land, and its imposition of a system of apartheid, Israel is in breach of the fundamental norms of international law.
Please take a look at the full PSC legal position paper available here.
