Starmer ducks taking firm action against Israel's Gaza genocide at PMQs
SIR KEIR STARMER again ducked taking firm action against Israel over the Gaza genocide when pressured in the Commons today.
Belfast South Social Democratic and Labour MP Claire Hanna demanded to know when Israel would be held to the same standards as Russia. They demanded action including an arms embargo, sanctions and the recognition of a Palestinian state.
But the Prime Minister merely reiterated calls for a ceasefire, release of Israeli hostages and the eventual implementation of a “two-state solution” in Palestine.
