It comes ahead of a Commons vote on Wednesday tabled by the SNP which will ask MPs to back an immediate ceasefire.

The Labour leadership’s strong support for Israel’s reaction to the October 7 massacre by Hamas has exposed deep divisions within the party.“Every conversation I had came back to the situation in Israel and Gaza. And the question of what we can do, practically. To deliver what we all want to see, now.“A return of all the hostages taken on 7 October. An end to the killing of innocent Palestinians.
