Read this highlight of the NEW divestment report from Nurses 4 Palestine's on the Royal College of Nursing (RCN) investment managers.

"The report points to a list of companies held by the RCN's fund managers, including U.S. tech firm Palantir and Israeli arms-maker Elbit Systems"

@rcn.org.uk
The union representing British nurses is under fire from some of its own members over what they say is an opaque investment strategy linked to companies investing in Israel's occupation of the Palestinian Territories.
