Palestine protesters are marching down Oxford Street
Pro-Palestine protesters are marching through central London, blocking off parts of the road on Oxford Street.
The activists have taken to the streets for another weekend of demonstrations demanding a ceasefire in Gaza.
The disruption on Britain's most iconic shopping street comes just two days before Christmas, with today expected to be the busiest day for festive shopping.
Bombarding the entrances to shops, those gathered demanded Christmas shoppers boycott “Israeli-linked” brands.
