30:07 The Future of Palestinian Solidarity
Welcome to another episode of Uncle Hoz in Tehran.
In this episode, Uncle Hoz is joined by Sayed Mohsin Abbas, a broadcaster, political analyst and former BBC Radio reporter and Channel 4 producer. He hosts Deep Dive Perspective, where he examines geopolitics, Western foreign policy and resistance movements, with a particular focus on Palestine and West Asia.
Together, we discuss the massive Palestine solidarity demonstration in London on 10 October, the mood among activists, the growing debate around a One-State Solution, and whether the political landscape in Britain is beginning to shift.
Drawing on conversations he had with demonstrators, campaigners and prominent anti-war figures, Sayed Mohsin reflects on the enthusiasm he encountered for a Palestinian-led vision of the future. The discussion also examines the Labour Party’s position, the Green Party’s debate over Zionism, and whether demonstrations can translate into a sustained political movement.
From the limitations of protest politics to the role of the British establishment, media narratives and Western foreign policy, this is a wide-ranging conversation about Palestine, political solidarity and the future direction of activism.
IN THIS EPISODE
THE RALLY AND ITS SIGNIFICANCE
Sayed Mohsin describes the scale of the London demonstration, the atmosphere among attendees and the renewed energy he witnessed after months of campaigning for Palestine.
THE ONE-STATE SOLUTION
Why is the idea attracting renewed attention? We discuss conversations with demonstrators, the response to a one-state Palestine campaign, and the question of who should determine Palestine’s political future.
ED MILIBAND, ZIONISM AND BRITISH POLITICS
The conversation explores recent political developments, the Labour Party’s approach to Palestine, and the debate within the Green Party over Zionism and a one-state solution.
VOICES FROM THE MARCH
Sayed Mohsin shares reflections from interviews with ordinary demonstrators and prominent anti-war campaigners, including their views on solidarity, political strategy and the future of the movement.
CAN PROTEST BECOME A POLITICAL MOVEMENT?
Both speakers consider the limitations of demonstrations without a clear long-term objective, the importance of unity among solidarity groups, and the need to turn public engagement into sustained action.
PALESTINE, WEST ASIA AND BRITAIN’S FUTURE
The discussion widens to include Western foreign policy, regional conflicts, media narratives, political accountability and the argument that solidarity with Palestine is connected to wider questions of sovereignty and social justice.
This is a frank discussion about the future of the Palestine solidarity movement, the competing visions for a political settlement, and the challenge of turning public solidarity into lasting change.
