I was quite surprised to see Streeting say this.
“Heartbreaking: the worst person you know just made a great point”
Streeting said he found Israel’s decision to break the Gaza ceasefire “soul-destroying”, and insisted the attacks do not “serve in Israel’s self-interest and cannot be justified as self-defence”, adding: “It has got to stop.”
It must be a cold down there in hell, because I have to give Streeting credit here.
Reflecting on the government’s unpopular decision to cut disability benefits and foreign aid, Streeting urged Labour’s critical friends to “cut us some slack”.
No, stop killing disabled people.
Put your two quotes together and you get: “let’s issue a statement from the least likely person condemning Isreal so we don’t look so bad over/distract from the welfare cuts.”
Also, the money being made from arms sales has plateaued so it’s time to call and end to at least one war. Small print: “No souls have been harmed in the making of this statement”.
So no credit given from me! Just another day in politics.
israel should just say they’re only killing trans and queer people then wes would be okay with it
Starmer’s gonna be big mad
Tel Aviv Keith will make sure he “clarifies” his “misunderstood” comments by tea time.
It’s almost as if now he has the health brief… he doesn’t want it 😆.
