Remembrance Day is about honouring all who suffered the cost of war, military and civilian alike. We remember with respect and without division. The best tribute we can pay is working for peace, justice and a future where conflict isn’t the legacy we hand to the next generation.

What has happened in Gaza is a coercive peace where the powerful impose their will, dictate terms, and call it “stability.”

I'm Jewish. I'm also Mancunian.
Every other national party leader was interviewed by Laura Kunesberg during their conference.
Maybe the BBC thought as someone who also supports Palestine - I had nothing to say?
