Starmer is increasing military spending and handing out lucrative contracts to arms manufacturers whilst doubling down on cutting winter fuel payments and maintaining the two-child benefit cap.

Starmer to promise 'defence dividend' from UK military spending

There was a time during the siege of Gaza when Israel categorically denied ever attacking hospitals or medics, but now it bombs them and slaughters civilian patients with such impunity.
This is a genocide funded by the US and UK governments.

There is a very simple reason why the UK government refuses to acknowledge the genocide in Gaza.
If they did, they would be admitting their own complicity in one of the greatest crimes of our time.
End all arms sales to Israel, now.

The US has voted against today's UNSC resolution for a ceasefire and release of all hostages in Gaza.
The bloodthirsty complicity and hypocrisy of Joe Biden and Kamala Harris is unforgivable. May they never know peace for their role in the genocide of the Palestinian people.

Israel is repeatedly using evacuation orders to forcibly displace Palestinians in Gaza.
Besides there being nowhere else to go, this is a crime against humanity.
The UK has a legal and moral duty to take a stand: end UN diplomatic cover, halt arms sales, and impose sanctions.
