Scottish Palestine Solidarity Campaign

The Scottish Palestine Solidarity Campaign (SPSC) is the Scottish section of the Palestine Solidarity Campaign. The group co-ordinates activity in Scotland to promote solidarity with the Palestinian people. It argues for a cultural boycott of the State of Israel while it continues military occupation of the Palestinian territories,[1] and demonstrations by the organisation in 2014 successfully forced Fringe productions funded by the Israeli government to close.[2]
