Now. Theyve been happening since the israel Hamas Conflict before which began in october last year. And now pro palestine and demonstrators are turning their attention to Barclays Bank. Theyre blockading and occupying branches of the bank in protest overits branches of the bank in protest over its links to the israel arms company. So joining over its links to the israel arms company. So joining me over its links to the israel arms company. So joining me now is our West Midlands reporter, jack carson , who was one, was at jack carson, who was one, was at one of these protests in wolverhampton. And jack, talk to wolverhampton. And jack, talk to me about the protests and out of interest , do they seem to have interest, do they seem to have taken note of some of the things that rishi sunak said . That rishi sunak said . Well, certainly today, from what we saw at the protesting here outside this Barclays Bank and a very peaceful certainly none of the chants that weve been hearing, of course, at some of the marches, chants like from the river to the sea, there was some being played , some music being played, pro palestine music , but pro palestine music, but certainly no chanting from any of the protesters here. They had their placards saying , um, their placards saying, um, saying of course, calling for a ceasefire. Um, as well as , of ceasefire. Um, as well as, of course, waving those palestinian flags. But there wasnt any of the chanting. Now, the reason that they are boycotting barclays and this is all coming from the Palestinian Solidarity Campaign today , is one of their campaign today, is one of their National Days of action, where theyre calling on people at branches across the country, um, to boycott barclays. They say its because they the bank, from their own research , has £1 their own research, has £1 billion. They say, in shares and provides £3 billion in loans and underwriting to nine companies. They say , whose weapons, they say, whose weapons, components and military technology, they say, are being used by israel on their attacks in gaza. So thats why they want people to boycott barclays with the idea being that therefore, if people boycott barclays and they take their business elsewhere, wont be able to elsewhere, they wont be able to afford to loan those companies any course. But what any money. Of course. But what weve the likes of weve seen from the likes of rishi sunak, of course, on the steps downing street, is that steps of downing street, is that he is saying that there are forces here at home to forces here at home trying to tear wanting the tear us apart and wanting the police to properly these police to properly police these kind of protests they when kind of protests when they when we , um, which are, we see things, um, which are, you know, alarming and intimidatory rather than just maybe mind the protesters certainly there was some involvement from the West Midlands in Midlands Police here in wolverhampton there wolverhampton today when there was passer by who was was a passer by who was obviously growing in frustration at repeated palestinian at the repeated palestinian protests the likes of cities protests in the likes of cities like in wolverhampton, he like this in wolverhampton, he tried to confront the protesters three um, going up to three times, um, going up to them, in their faces. Them, shouting in their faces. There back and there was a bit of back and forth, but West Midlands forth, but the West MidlandsPolice Involved and police did get involved and pulled those two people apart. And sent him on his way and and then sent him on his way and finally, the third finally, after the third attempt, did leave and attempt, he did leave once and for there was some for all. So there was some confrontation. The confrontation. But certainly the police , more keen and eager to police, more keen and eager to get involved possibly that get involved. But possibly that could just just because could just be just just because of where we are today. Its not so wasnt much so much. It wasnt so much greater, greater size in numbers, particularly. It was numbers, particularly. It was small numbers. So thats probably why the police were able involved able to get involved more freely. We have that first freely. When we have that first again, that point of rishi again, since that point of rishi sunak speeches on the steps of downing street on the 9th of march, big, more national march, that big, more National Protest for palestine, thats when see whether when well really see whether the the minister the words of the Prime Minister have taken by the likes have been taken in by the likes of metropolitan of the metropolitan police down in and well see in london, and how and well see then how these protests are policed coming weeks. Policed in the coming weeks. Did you sense, though, that the police appeared feel have the police appeared to feel have more confidence in their behaviour because a lot of the time when ive watched the police, somewhat police, theyve looked somewhat timid. Comes of timid. When it comes to sort of speaking and approaching protesters. Protesters. It certainly when they when they kind of got a knack of this signing , i they kind of got a knack of this signing, i wouldnt say kick off because it was there was no kind of physical involvement between the two parties. But when the when the shouting got a little bit when the shouting got a little bh and when the shouting got a little bit and a little bit bit loud and a little bit louder, the police were straight over just to kind of come and overjust to kind of come and try people try and pull these two people apart try and move. Apart and just try and move. This of the public that this member of the public that was not with was obviously not happy with these, with these protests today, certainly today, moved them on certainly this when we here this morning when we here observing protests the observing the protests at the start there there was quite start there was there was quite a of the police a few members of the police before realised there before they realised that there wasnt going to be too much of a crowd. Obviously they crowd. And obviously they diverted resources. So certainly the been the Police Presence has been greater than maybe greater here today than it maybe it previously. And yes, it has been previously. And yes, certainly, nana that my certainly, id say nana that my observation is that there were certainly quicker get certainly quicker to get involved not just stand involved and not just stand around watching as some around maybe watching as some criticism has been them criticism has been of them before criticism has been of them beflisten, thank you very listen, jack, thank you very much.
