What a stupid shit show this all is. Isreal and Hamas aren’t going to be like “well guys Jess Phillips says we should stop killing each other so let’s chill out.”
The whole vote on calling for a ceasefire is idiotic, and it’s even more idiotic that Starmer imposed the whip. Labour getting bogged down in ideological purity bullshit yet again.
the uk and us are the two biggest countries in the g7. putting pressure on the presumptive next government to push for a policy which holds aid contingent on reducing violence and pushing for a two state solution is exactly what this does.

Starmer is utterly terrified of getting painted with the anti-semitism brush, and is massively overcompensating as a result
