Dissent over Labour’s stance on the Israel-Hamas war is growing as a series of shadow ministers voiced their support for a ceasefire.
Labour leader Sir Keir Starmer is supporting the Conservative UK Government’s diplomatic push for “humanitarian pauses” in the fighting to allow aid into Gaza and for people trapped in the bombarded territory to leave.
But he has faced disgruntlement from within the party over his reluctance to push for a total cessation of hostilities between the warring sides in the Middle East.
TalkTV’s Kevin O'Sullivan clashes with MP Khalid Mahmood over pressure for the Labour leader to change his position on the Israel-Gaza war.
Khalid argues: "Keir Starmer has said he wants the cessation of violence".
"That's a ceasefire! You can't let him get away with silly language games!" Kevin retorts.
