DOZENS of young people took to the streets of London today to demand that the government impose a total trade embargo on Israel.

Supporters of Youth Demand blocked traffic on Kensington Gore, near the Royal Albert Hall, and at Poultry, near the Bank of England, at 9am in two groups.

They stepped onto the road, unfurling banners reading: “Youth Demand an End to Genocide” and “Stop Arming Israel.”
