PARLIAMENTARY EARLY DAY MOTION
OCCUPY PROTESTS (26 October 2011)

That this House notes the `Occupy Wall Street' and `Occupy London Stock Exchange' protest movements; believes the right to protest is an essential tenet of democracy; further notes concerns have been raised in America about the anti-Semitic nature of some of those protests; further believes signs referring to `Hitler's Bankers' and `Google Jewish Billionaires' are offensive and have no place at such protests; further believes the verbal or physical abuse of Jews by demonstrators is unacceptable; and calls on leaders of the Occupy demonstrations worldwide to condemn anti-Semitism and act to stamp it out whenever it occurs.
