With countless lives being shattered, we can’t stay silent. Join @AmnestyUK and urge Rishi Sunak to call for an immediate ceasefire by all parties to help put an end to the ongoing humanitarian catastrophe in Gaza amnesty.org.uk/actions/cease…

Keir Starmer & Sunak's unwillingness to call for an immediate ceasefire will never be forgotten, nor forgiven. The UK Government & Labour Opposition should hang their heads in shame as we witness a massacre that is killing thousands of women & children in front of our very eyes.
SNP Westminster leader Stephen Flynn has written to the Prime Minister and Labour leader urging them to back an immediate ceasefire in Gaza amid mounting concern over a planned Israeli ground invasion of Rafah. i.stv.tv/3wabj1n

SNP amendment for a Gaza ceasefire was defeated 293 votes to 125. So 58 MPs who backed Labour's amendment abstained on the SNP's. But SNP has only 43 MPs, so 82 from other parties backed them, inc some fm Labour's front-bench. A strong, principled stance by @StephenFlynnSNP

We have started to gather at Parliament in our 1000s to demand MPs vote for a #CeasefireNOW 🇵🇸🕊️ For those who choose to be on the wrong side of history, we must never forget or forgive, over 11,000 Palestinians dead, over 1.6 million forcibly displaced

When is enough @UKLabour
While all eyes are on Al-Shifa Hospital, there are massacres taking place in other places in Gaza. Children were sleeping in their homes and the Israeli planes bombed them homes in the Sheikh Radwan neighborhood. There are dozens of dead and wounded.

Another shout for Channel 4 news and its reporting from the Middle East. Nadine Dorries wanted to emasculate it. We are so lucky to have journalists of this ilk, as we are so unlucky to have had politicians of her ilk.

Thank you to @lindseyhilsum for sharing these heartbreaking stories. I hope @SuellaBraverman has watched this. Or maybe she has a heart of stone.
