Labour & there lies

So, in your opinion, looking at your answer there will never be a solution to this problem?

"And Israel has to give back all their disgusting land grab in the West Bank." - The problem the Israelis have here is that they have given back a lot of land, including the Sinai desert. One major piece they gave back was large parts of Gaza. They forcibly removed all their citizens from Gaza and literally gave it back to the Palestinians. The result of that? The attacks continued. Now, Israel does not see why they should hand anything back as the Palestinians just see that as weakness and the attacks get worse. You can never appease a madman.
The stated intention of the Palestinians, as laid down in their Charter, is the complete destruction of the Jewish State and people. Until that changes there can never be peace in the area. The cycle of death will continue.

The Palestinians will not accept any 'middle ground' solution. As far as they are concerned they want the lot, and that is why this will never end.
You are right. There is ample land between the Arab countries, however, as always, one flavour of Islam will do nothing to help the other flavour.

Palestine is a few tribes,united in their racist hatred of Jewish people.

Without Israel they would turn on each other.

Sorry, I was out on the bike a long time. I only got as far as the words 'sniper' and 'Putin'.
Note to self, must do better.

We can bring you some lines from Labour leader Keir Starmer at Gillingham football club.
He says: "This election is for you, because you now have the power, the chance to end the chaos, to turn the page and rebuild Britain."
He says what the Tories have done to the country is "unforgivable" and voters "do not need to put up with it".

Starmer now brings up former PM Liz Truss while speaking about the economy.
He tells the story of a family who decided not to have a second child due to the economic effects of Truss's brief time in power.
As a reminder, in her 49 days in power, she released a mini-Budget, which included £45bn of unfunded tax cuts, triggered economic turmoil and led to her downfall as prime minister.
"They will live with that decision for the rest of their lives," Starmer says.
"That is the price that they are paying for the mess that this government has made of this economy."

Starmer about to speak to Today programme

Keir Starmer is asked about his beliefs and whether he believes in free university tuition.
We will only make commitments we know we can fulfil, he says.
We have got to prioritise getting waiting lists down in the NHS first, he says.
Starmer is now asked about the changes he said he wanted to make and would not be expensive, such as abolishing the House of Lords.
"The big choice people will make is to stop the chaos of the last 14 years, to turn the page and rebuild our country," he answers.
He says that he still wants to abolish the House of Lords "but the question is if it is the priority" soon after the election.
"We have problems we have to tackle first, such as achieving economic stability."
Starmer is asked if Rishi Sunak has stabilised the economy.
"No," he responds.
He claims that Sunak said inflation going up had nothing to do with him - but now takes credit for it coming down.
Annual inflation fell to 2.3% on Friday, its lowest level in almost three years.
"I don't think anyone listening will be taken in by that."
Keir Starmer is now asked whether former Conservative MP Natalie Elphicke (below) represents the Labour Party better than Diane Abbott.
He replies that Elphicke crossed the floor to Labour and has become a member, meaning she accepts the party's values.
Starmer calls suspended Labour MP Diane Abbott a "trailblazer", who has done "incredible work" and says she is undergoing a disciplinary process that is coming to an end.
When asked if he will accept any MP from any political party, he says they must accept Labour's values.

Do you believe Palestine should be a state? Starmer is asked.
"Yes I do", he responds.
Recognition of a Palestinian state is important, he says, alongside a "safe and secure" Israel.
It has to be part of a peaceful resolution in the region but must come at an appropriate time, he says.
Political leaders have looked away in the last decade and this is one of the reasons for the "terrible, terrible" situation in Gaza, he says.
Starmer is asked if he's looking away by not committing to recognising a Palestinian state, like other countries have this week.
There needs to be a ceasefire, hostages need to be released, and aid must be let in to Gaza first, he says.

Starmer now talking to BBC Breakfast

Starmer is asked about Jeremy Corbyn's announcement that he will stand against the Labour party as an independent in the eneral election.
Starmer says "that's a matter for Jeremy" but that "we will have an excellent candidate" in Islington North, where Corbyn will be standing.
Starmer is asked if he will debate with the prime minister every week, something which Rishi Sunak has asked for.
"Of course there will be live TV debates but I want to talk for as long as I can to voters directly and take my message to them and hear from them," Starmer says.
"At the end the power is with those voters," he says.
He goes on to say that he could debate with the PM "once or a hundred times" but "I know what he is going to say. He will say everything is fine... we hear that every week at PMQs."
How will Labour help with energy prices and the cost of living crisis?
Starmer says that an energy price cap is important but the only long term solution to set up Great British Energy, which will be based in Scotland - as a reminder, the Labour leader is speaking from Glasgow.
That will "bring energy prices down for good", he says.
We need to stabilise the economy and if you lose control of the economy, "it's working people who pay the price," he says, adding we need to "end the chaos".
Keir Starmer is now speaking about abolishing tuition fees - something he was previously committed to.
He says he still thinks the system is unfair but after the "damage that has been done to the economy" and having costed both abolishing fees and cuts to NHS waiting lists - he's left with a tough political choice.
"I can't do both," Starmer says.
"I've chosen that we will deal with the waiting lists and putting the NHS back on its feet."
Starmer is asked about the smoking ban for people born after 2009 - which is not likely to make its way through Parliament in time for the election. Will he reinstate it?
Starmer says the ban is important and supports it - suggesting there was more Labour support than Tory.
"We are committed to it," he says, adding that he hopes there will be a cross-party consensus after the election.

So....corporal clot is all in favour of restricting/ banning even ? the use of mobile phones to those under the age of 16...and in the same wishes to allow those same children, who would be 15 years and 364 days( excepting the extra day where a leap year may occur) just a day later when he would say " they are of that age" to be able to help decide the fate of your taxes your pension and welfare....who was it said " a week is a long time in politics" well just 4 days into wanting to become the next PM he is off shooting himself in the foot with both barrels....only 5 and a half weeks to go ....🤔

I listened to the labour mp on about the tory stick the kids in the army policy ( though army is a small % ) , apparently we have to think of there mental health , well being etc , Jesus wept
I started work at 12 years of age in a berni inn , making salads & washing up , my daughter was doing 3 partime jobs at 16 , boots chemist , health support worker ( hospital) , and a day at local hairdressers .
But apparently we shouldn’t upset the poor little souls these days by suggesting they spend less time in there bedrooms smoking spliffs / tick-rock & w——ng
You can’t just blame labour , tories are in charge at the moment & every day in hospital I had more people / always seemed to be 3 at a time asking about my mental health rather than my physical health , the bloke in the next bay played on this telling them all his mental health was suffering 🙄,
I hate to think where this will all end
Only time I laughed was when wife visited me in hospital & I asked how the dog was , apparently he was suffering mentally with me not there !! Thank god she was joking

Hold your horses......After being suspended for a whole year her punishment was that she had to attend a one-hour course on antisemitism. That'll learn her !
