Middle East Update

Debate between Caroline Nokes and Ian Byrne

Tuesday 6th May 2025 Commons Chamber

[Madam Deputy Speaker]

I am going to get all Members in, but I urge short questions.

[Ian Byrne (Liverpool West Derby) (Lab)]

Israel is starving Gaza to death. I am sorry, Minister, but when Israel is using starvation as a weapon of war and Palestinians are being ethnically cleansed before our eyes, mere words of regret or condemnation from the Government are simply not good enough. We in this House will be judged in history for failing the Palestinian people, so I urge the Minister to listen to the consensus that is being built across the House today and act. We do not need words; we need action for the Palestinian people.
