Pro-Palestinian demonstrators protested outside the main UK warehouse of Israeli company Carmel Agrexco in Hayes, Middlesex, close to Heathrow on Saturday 7 Feb, 2009, claiming its exports of flowers and fruit from Palestinian farmers and Israeli settlements were illegal under international law.

A large number of police were there to protect the premises which were closed for the day of protest. The peaceful demonstration called for a boycott against Israeli goods and an end to the continuing siege of Gaza and for freedom for Palestine. There was a samba band and the protesters also performed two songs, the 'Boycott Israel Song' and the 'Boycott Agrexco Song.'
