Starmer Says Israeli Leader Must “Stop”
Keir Starmer has called on Benjamin Netanyahu’s offensive against Rafah to “stop” in a bid to appeal to pro-Palestine voters. After his first major speech this morning, he was asked what he would say as Prime Minister to the Israeli leader. He had a punchy response:
