    **** me. Israel are murderers. I'm not anti semitic, members of my family are Jewish. This is not on.

    If we want to quote the Bible, we are all children of Abraham.

    These are kids getting slaughtered.

    Nothing anti semitic about criticising Israel mate. Besides which, the people they are killing in Gaza are also semites. Not a lot of people know that.

    I’ve deleted my response once I reread your post . Agree indiscriminately shooting civilians then totally denying it day in day out despite overwhelming evidence is turning the world against them

    A bloke called Jeremy corbyn told the world about the Israelis and their disgraceful treatment of the Palestinian people 10 years back and got destroyed for it.Don't know why Israel seems to have a hold over the western world but for countries like America to risk being labelled war criminals rather than upset them is bizarre.

    Quite simple really, a lot of rich people in the USA are Jewish and in American politics money talks

    In the words of Giora Elland, former head of the Israeli national security council.

    “The state of Israel has no choice but to turn Gaza into a place that is temporarily or permanently impossible to live in. Creating a severe humanitarian crisis in Gaza is a necessary means to achieve that goal. Gaza will become a place where no human being can exist.”

    That is the definition of genocide and ethnic cleansing. In America i would lose my job for saying that.

    Can’t speak for the Tories or the Americans but loads on the right of the Labour Party are in receipt of Israeli money.

    When a particular stance or policy looks and feels strange, just follow the money. The answer lies there.

    You're right and thats the reason Corbyn had to go' he couldn't be bought' you notice that Starmer has been given a very easy ride by the british press' thats because they know full well he can be moulded and manipulated into whatever they want him to be' Corbyn was far too much of a threat to them.

    It’s war crimes, genocide, which ever gets the biggest response.

    Is it true though that loads on the right are in receipt of Israeli money? Genuinely would like to see the evidence.

    There’s plenty of evidence widely available. Donations over a certain amount have to be declared. The likes of Trevor Chinn run the Labour Party these days. Plenty of Red Tories have benefitted, Phillips, Lammy, Streeting, and of course our Lord and Saviour Sir Keith.

    It was in the public domain a couple of weeks back that Starner and some of his front benchers were sponsored by Israel' don't know if its true or not but it would certainly explain why he was so against a ceasefire.

    IIRC his wife is Jewish. Which could explain part of it - especially if she still has family in Israel.

    This thread just illustrates exactly why we must get rid of first past the post and allow people to vote with their principles.

    We must make it illegal for MPs or political parties to receive donations from anyone not a British citizen living in the UK. Then we might not see as many MPs in hock to foreign governments or individuals whose wishes are against those of the British people.

    In other news, one of our MPs is under investigation for "causing significant damage to the reputation of Parliament". These two paragraphs may, or may not, be linked...

    He didn't stand a chance' Murdoch and co saw to that constantly smearing him with their b*****it and people bought it' he was and still is a man of great honesty and integrity thats why the Labour membership was at an all time high and why its now on its arse' Starmer isn't fit to lace his boots.

    keep telling yourself that if you want, for me people give far too much credit to the effect of media influence, he was elected and failed because far too many people didn’t like what he had to say .

    Its probably a combination of both. Whilst I agreed with many of his policies and positions, he wasn't a good enough politician to avoid the media traps and had too much baggage to make some criticism of him very easy. The policies themselves were popular with voters.

    In hindsight, he'd have been a better PM than Johnson, Truss or Sunak - but they are 3 of the worst ever.

    Yeh if theres a criticism of Corbyn it was his naivity towards what a dirty game modern politics is and he never engaged and fought his corner against those that were constantly out to do a hatchet job on him' he was probably too decent.
