That is like the little children in North Korea who s⁴ing about their country.
That’s actually a pretty decent response. I hope they are not paying lip service and they break ranks to move forward to get a ceasefire. V was your MP one of the bad ass 54?Response from my Labour MSP (Member of Scottish Parliament) which seems pretty decent, and just makes me wonder what on earth Kier Starmer and that lot are up to.

Thank you for writing to me about this important and difficult issue.
The latest conflict in Israel and Gaza has been devastating and my heart goes out to the families of all those innocent lives lost on both sides.
Hamas’s terror attack on Israel was barbaric and cannot be justified.
The indiscriminate bombing of civilians in Gaza is also barbaric and cannot be justified.
The entire Labour Party is united in demanding the free flow of medicine, food, water, and electricity into Gaza and humanitarian corridors must be opened.
There has already been too much bloodshed during this conflict. I join calls for an immediate ceasefire and release of hostages.
Tomorrow in the Scottish Parliament I and the rest of the Scottish Parliamentary Labour Party will be voting for an immediate ceasefire.
Scottish Labour will also be adding to the SNP motion to strengthen the Parliaments’ position by adding calls for the International Criminal Court to investigate the conduct of all parties in this conflict and for an end to illegal occupation and siege.
I have and will continue to advocate for an end to conflict, as seen in the Parliamentary motions I have signed here S6M-11209 | Scottish Parliament Websiteand here S6M-11019 | Scottish Parliament Website.
Despite the sense of hopelessness in the last month, I continue to believe strongly in the cause of peace in the region through a two-state solution that delivers security, peace, and freedom for all through a sovereign state of Israel and a sovereign state of Palestine.
As humans, it is only natural that we would be affected by seeing such loss and suffering. But here in Glasgow our diversity is our strength, and we must pull together instead of apart during troubling times. We cannot allow the tragic events in the Middle East to divide our communities.
I am aware of an increase in reports of both Antisemitic and Islamophobic hate crime since the conflict flared a month ago. And I want to be clear that we must not, and we will not stand for any such threats and abuse in our communities. I stand shoulder to shoulder with the Jewish and Muslim communities during this difficult time, as we think of the victims of this violent conflict.
I hope this response answers some of your questions.
Once again, thank you for taking the time to write to me. Please do not hesitate to get in touch should you need anything in the future.

More to the point, for me, our governments are discussing the appropriateness of calling for a ceasefire. They're happy to play into narratives that make out a ceasefire is an attack on Israel.That is the scariest thing. How our Government's are OK with the genocide. I can't comprehend it at all.
Tbf I didn’t clock Scottish Labour had voted with the SNP, so they were one of the bad asses - which is nice to see. I didn’t see any of your original post so don’t worryedited to delete this because I'm talking pish / have misunderstood - no he wasn't
ETA (sorry, have messed this post up so much) but Scottish labour's position from more or less the start has been a ceasefire, it's just that no one pays attention to them. And I didn't realise they'd be voting with the SNP to call for the ICC to investigate.
Of course not forgetting to know my place in relation to someone Oscar nominated for Borat 2 here, but flooding media with lies and then crying because it didn't get you where you wanted or because crying about it takes the lies further seems to happen a lot and often gets rewarded with attention i think.I’ll go with nutter
I mean you can’t flood the media with lies and fake news and then cry when nobody believes you lol
Probably minor, but I think the way he's phrased "to the atrocity deniers" here seems like a bit of look aren't I balanced careerism and veers into again using victims to prove arguments online.

This isn’t Muslim v Jew, Hamas killed Muslims and look at what Israel does to those who protest against it.
Yes it’s to be flown in Dublin, doubt it will happen on gov buildings in NI as unionists would object but that’s never stopped the message getting across .Slightly off-topic, but interested to know: For those based in the U.K. and Ireland, if your local authority quite literally flew the Ukrainian flag in solidarity with Ukraine outside their main Council buildings, will they be doing the same on 29th of November (the official day of solidarity with Palestinian people)?
Can anybody shed any light on which business and which influencer this is in reference to?
I thought they said food creator though.Is it Garnier or L'Oréal? Because I know Garnier donated their products to IDF in the past in support.
I thought they said food creator though.
Yeah you're right, I just noticed that in second reading, sorry
I don't know who the food creator or the brand would be but would love to know too.
