Starmer’s Gaza Position Breaks Labour Manifesto Pledge Labour’s 2024 manifesto says Palestinian statehood is an inalienable right. So why is Starmer making it conditional on Israel’s behaviour?

Starmer told voters Palestine’s statehood was a right. Now he’s telling Israel it depends on a ceasefire. That’s not leadership — it’s betrayal. #Palestine #Gaza #LabourUturn

#LabourUTurn incoming.

Removing the stick but keeping the carrot - I guess McSweeney saw that as the best way to maximise votes in his second term campaign. Not sure its the best plan in a climate emergency though.
