Keir Starmer's Gaza problem

Will ceasefire calls be enough to unify Labour MPS and supporters alike?

While an SNP motion calling for an immediate ceasefire in Gaza will be debated in the House of Commons today, all eyes are on Labour. The party has tiptoed around a position on the war in Gaza since the terrorist attacks of October 7th, causing divisions among MPs and supporters. Will Keir Starmer鈥檚 eleventh hour call for 鈥渁n immediate humanitarian ceasefire鈥 be enough to see off another rebellion and hold his party together in an election year?
