Said keir starmer has faced criticism in cardiff of gravely misrepresenting meetings with Muslim Leaders over the weekend. He has also faced a backlash by saying that israel had a right to cut off water and electricity to gaza and later he corrected and said he meant that they had a right to defend themselves.

This was an interview done in the aftermath of| interview done in the aftermath of the hamas attacked. So keir starmer was asked about his views and appear to say that he backed israels right to say that he backed israels right to cut water and power to Palestinian People living in gaza. Now, clips of that went viral and circulated around social media and there was an immediate backlash from within the label party from those that thought that keir starmer was backin that thought that keir starmer was back in collective punishment of palestinians. Some days later his comments were corrected that he had only meant to say that israel had a right to defend itself more broadly. But it looks as though the damage has already been done because soon after we started to see resignations of local government representatives, councillors from the labour party that have stood down from their positions citing specifically those comments we saw about 20 or so resignations from within the labour party. Since banda has been tensions rising over whether labour should call for an immediate ceasefire. Some mps have already started asking this. This is not the governments official position. The government believes that an all out ceasefire would benefit hamas. Not that rishi sunak has directly talked about that all but smack several labour mps have been calling for an immediate ceasefire and for labour to stand for an immediate ceasefire weve had a letter from for an immediate ceasefire weve had a letterfrom hundred and for an immediate ceasefire weve had a letter from hundred and 50 for an immediate ceasefire weve had a letterfrom hundred and 50 labour councillors today asking the Labour Leadership to do the same.

Yes today was any meeting | between said keir starmer and some of his mps, around ten muslim mps and when it here turned up to that meeting it was the first time he had addressed his muslim mps altogether although one or two had had meetings in private about this issue. Not so much coming out of that meeting so far especially not from the Labour Leadership especially. I am told that the members saw that it would be constructive in nature, a platform to voice the concerns coming from constituents in their constituencies. There is a belief that labour is not taking a Strong Enough stance in supporting the palestinians in gaza. They are doing this by not calling for an all out ceasefire and not condemning israel for breaking international law. Weve heard from a French Venture Labour Mps calling out collective punishment of palestinians in response to what happened to gaza. No sign that circuit sir keir starmer is looking to shift his position. Rishi sunak says the uk would consider discussing a humanitarian pause in gaza to facilitate aid coming in gaza but does not want a wholesale ceasefire. A Royal Air Force plane carrying humanitarian aid for gaza took off from the Raf Brize Norton in 0xfordshire heading to egypt. The uk government has promised an additional 20 Million Pounds of humanitarian support for gaza. Mr sunak says he does not agree with calls for a full ceasefire as that would only benefit hamas. In keeping with that us position, what will happen at the un later.

He said that they had not occurred in a vacuum, that was the phrase he used yesterday but in the last 60 minutes he has claimed to be shocked by the misinterpretation by the israelis.

This has come against the backdrop of decades of Israeli Palestinian conflict including the continued occupation of palestinian territories. What is it that make israel so angry . Israels continuing occupation of palestinian territories. What is it that has made israel so angry . Well, first of all, as you know better than most, israel pulled out of the gaza strip in 2005. We withdrew. We took down the settlements and we. Your troops, evacuated your troops. Your troops. Yes, yes, yes. We took them, the settlements and we redeployed behind the 1967 line. And yet none of that is seemingly recalled by the Secretary General. And more so, he talked about, you know, the lack of a progress on peace. But, you know and i know that hamas has been the most bitter and violent opponent of peace and reconciliation. They say is my country has no right to exist in any borders. They say any arab who signs a Peace Agreement with israel is a traitor to the cause. And you know what needs to be done to traitors . They say that the only path is not negotiation, the only path is terrorism, is violence. And so for him to say, well, hamas is killing us because theres no politics, the Peace Process has been stifled. Thats simply not true. In fact, when the Peace Process was moving ahead, youll recall both of us are old enough to remember the oslo years in the 1990s. And then there was a whole wave of hamas suicide bombings. And then we were told hamas is killing jews because they want to stop peace. And now the Secretary General is telling us today hamas is killing jews because there is no peace. Im sorry. Hamas kills us because thats their raison detre. Thats who they are. They are a disgusting, extreme, barbaric organisation. And anyone who had any doubts just saw the violence that israelis experienced on that terrible 0ctober seventh, saturday morning. Im sure there are now discussions behind the scenes with Antonio Guterres and senior israeli diplomats about what the Secretary General really wanted to say when he made those remarks. But lets look at the consequences of it. It seems to be quite an unprecedented move to deny visas to un officials. We understand even the uns humanitarian chief, martin griffiths, may not be able to visit. Wont that actually make it even worse in your efforts to try to work with the United Nations . The United Nations has to show itself to be a reasonable partner here. And weve in the past worked with Secretary Generals and worked with the un effectively on numerous issues. But id remind you that two of the current Secretary General� s predecessors, both kofi annan and ban ki moon, publicly addressed the issue of institutional, Structural Anti Israel Bias in the un. This Secretary General has not done so. He seems to have adopted and embraced that structural and organisational bias against my country. Antonio guterres spoke at length at the un security council. He also emphasized what we understand, one western leader, a friend of israel, has said on their visits to israel and that there is even in war there are rules. And he mentioned this to israel, but he also mentioned it to hamas, who he accused of using civilians as human shields. So as the worlds top diplomat, he seems to be looking at both sides of this war and asking both sides to meet their international obligations. 0n the contrary, hes Making An Artificial Symmetry between a democratic country that is acting to protect its people after weve experienced the most brutal act of violence, the worst Terrorist Incidents since 9 11, and the worst act of anti semitic violence since 1945. Hes making a symmetry between that and between blood thirsty terrorists who rain and burn people alive. And its been reported on the bbc. I dont need to restate all the things that hamas did on that terrible saturday morning. There is no symmetry. And by drawing a symmetry, i think hes made a terrible mistake and hes hurt his own reputation and that of the United Nations. I would remind you that weve had a whole host of World Leaders whove come to israel the president of the united states, the Prime Minister of great britain, the president of france, the chancellor of germany. Today weve got two european leaders, the austrian and the czech Prime Minister. Everyone is coming here and they are unequivocally theyre not saying it happened in a vacuum like the Secretary General. There are unequivocally condemning hamass behavior. That is what the International Community needs to do. And, of course, we want to do what we can to minimise civilian casualties. Of course, we want to work on the humanitarian effort with the relevant organisations. But this artificial symmetry, it is simply morally, politically unacceptable. Butjust briefly, i mean, even your best of friends, joe biden, who was the first to come, to be seen to be standing beside israel, he also made comments saying, you have to be careful of civilians. You have to allow aid to enter gaza. Many have been giving you messages without establishing what you have described as symmetry. Its possible to have many messages at the same time. I agree. And of course, we hear what President Biden and our other friends are saying. Of course, israel works within the framework of international law. Of course, israel wants to minimise harm to the civilian population of gaza. Of course we are targeting hamas and not gaza civilians. But when people are saying its the same, that when a civilian is inadvertently caught up in the crossfire between us and hamas, thats the same as butchering, as raping, burning children alive. The sort of things hamas that there is no symmetry. The german chancellor, when he was here a few days ago, he made a comparison between hamas and the nazis. World leaders have said theyre like isis, worse than isis, because isis didnt burn children alive. Isis didnt do the sort of atrocities that hamas committed. And yet the Secretary General is saying its a clean playing field. Sorry, its not a clean playing field. There is a clear aggressor here, a clear victim here. And israel was attacked unprovoked. There is no justification. And that is what should be expected of the leader of the largest and most Important
