THE Scottish Labour conference in Glasgow has overwhelmingly backed a ban on arms sales to Israel, as it stood in solidarity with the people of Palestine.
A motion, tabled by Cunningham South Constituency Labour Party (CLP) with the support of Glasgow Kelvin CLP, condemned US President Donald Trump’s stated intention to “own” Gaza and his claim that Palestinians had “no right to live there.”
It went on to argue that these plans amount to ethnic cleansing under UN and other international treaties in a land already in the midst of a genocide.
