As the UK election campaigns gain momentum, the Palestinian Return Centre (PRC) calls upon all voters, particularly those who support the Palestinian cause and the Arab community, to actively participate in the upcoming elections and exercise their democratic right to vote.

In light of the ongoing humanitarian crisis in the Gaza Strip, it is more crucial than ever to ensure that our voices are heard and that we elect representatives who are committed to justice, human rights, and peace.

The situation in Gaza remains dire, with ongoing violence, a debilitating blockade, and a lack of international accountability for the Israeli government's actions. The PRC believes in the power of community-empowered decision-making.

Therefore, we encourage you to carefully select your representatives based on their stance on critical issues that impact the Palestinian people and the broader Middle Eastern region. Your vote is a powerful tool to influence policy and advocate for a just resolution to the Palestinian plight.

When choosing your candidate, consider the following criteria:

*Stance on the War on Gaza: Support candidates who unequivocally oppose the ongoing military aggression in Gaza.

*Position on the Blockade: Vote for those who advocate for lifting the blockade and ending the siege that has crippled Gaza's economy and humanitarian conditions.

*View on Israeli Impunity: Select representatives who demand accountability for Israel’s violations of international law and human rights.

*Recognition of Ongoing Genocide: Support candidates who acknowledge and take a stand against the systematic and ongoing displacement and killing of Palestinians.

*Call for Immediate Ceasefire and Aid Access: Prioritize those who urgently call for a ceasefire and immediate humanitarian aid access to Gaza.

Your vote is a powerful tool for change. By electing representatives who align with these principles, we can work towards justice, peace, and dignity for Palestinians. Let us unite in our efforts to ensure that our voices are heard and that our chosen representatives advocate for an end to the suffering in Gaza.

Vote wisely, and together, we can make a difference!
