The UK should insist that the Israeli Govt reopens routes for humanitarian aid to reach the population in Gaza who are trying to live amid the destruction. Withholding essential food, shelter and medicine contravenes international humanitarian law.

Millions of people are being forced to wait in pain for weeks just to even see their GP.
The lack of GP appointments is leading to unnecessary hospital admissions, straining A&E and costing the NHS even more money.
It cannot continue.

The new government has turned its back on pension-age women who were wronged through no fault of their own, ignoring the Ombudsman’s recommendations.
The Conservatives left our economy in a shambles, but asking those wronged pensioners to pay the price is wrong.

Pleased to see the Government finally acting in this area: the 'local connection' test was always especially hard on veterans. We should be doing everything we can to help ensure those who serve, and forces families, can access housing.
