    😂😂 Russia is not ICC signatory, but the UK supported its decision against Russian President. In today's politics, hypocrisy and lameness are no shame

  • @KillaKermit
    Labour has been clear throughout 😭 - Starmer said that cutting off water & electricity was acceptable, we have ears u lemon.
  • @loughs
    Lammy? The guy who rowed in with Starmer supporting a full siege of Gaza? Lammy? Who received a donation of £70,000 from Gary Lubner, an Israeli lobbyist.
  • @ryp6627
    But Starmer thought it was ok to deprive Palestinians of water and electricity?
  • @rushy79
    "We don't recognise Palestine as a state" so that makes genocide ok?
  • @Charles61284
    Starmer said Isreal has the right to commit war crimes, shame on Labour and all the careerist shadow front bench.

    All these Hypocrites are complicit in the Genocide in Gaza?!..
  • @Youdannny
    Labour waiting until the wind is clearly blowing in the other direction before they u-turn to actually criticise the Government's handling of Isreal. Where were they from the start? Bunch of hypocrites.

    The grandson of famed South African president Nelson Mandela has criticised the UK Labour Party's shadow secretary David Lammy for stating that his grandfather would not have supported the ongoing pro-Palestine college campus protests. Lammy, who made an appearance in Washington DC on Wednesday, shared his disagreement with the Gaza solidarity demonstrations during his speech at the Hudson Centre among US Republicans. The Labour politician stated that Mandela would have advocated for peaceful protesting instead of "violence and rioting". During the 30th anniversary of Nelson Mandela's presidential inauguration, his grandson, Nkosi Zwelivelile Mandela, emphatically disavowed Lammy's remarks about his grandfather. "Contrary to what David Lammy, the Labour MP in the UK, would like us to believe, [Nelson Mandela] acknowledged the heroes in the Civil Rights Movement in the USA and campuses all over the world who regularly protested for our freedom," Zwelivelile Mandela said in a lengthy post on Instagram.
