Charlotte Church: Welsh singer attends pro-Palestine rally in London weeks after ‘River to Sea’ song controversy

Charlotte Church was seen leading a pro-Palestine rally in London this afternoon – two weeks after she drew criticism for singing an apparent antisemitic song.

The Welsh singer was at the front of the crowd of thousands of protesters who marched from Hyde Park to the US embassy in their call for an immediate ceasefire in Gaza.

It took place just hours after US president Joe Biden told supporters in Philadelphia that securing a ceasefire was “looking tough” as the situation worsens in the Middle East.

Ms Church, 38, was seen smiling and posing for pictures beside banners at the march, organised by the Palestine Solidarity Campaign.

Her appearance comes two weeks after she denied the song “From the River to the Sea” was antisemitic following criticism for singing a rendition at a pro-Palestine fundraising concern in Caerphilly in South Wales.
