Two people are arrested as hundreds of protesters hold a pro-Palestine Action demonstration outside the Labour Party conference in Liverpool. Reporting describes arrests involving at least one elderly man and others as the crowd gathers at the conference venue during the event’s opening.
Multiple outlets say more than 200 people sit outside the conference area, demonstrating in support of Pro-Palestine Action, described by one outlet as a banned group. The Independent and the Evening Standard both link the protest to the start of the conference, also noting the scale of the gathering outside the event.
While both accounts agree on the location, timing, and the arrests, they emphasize different details: one highlights the number of people attending the protest and the coinciding conference start, while the other focuses more on the specific arrests and the involvement of an elderly protester. Both present the demonstration as taking place in Liverpool at the time Labour conference proceedings begin.
