Labour MP Suspended - For Backing Peace 31.10.2023 12:08
This is beyond outrageous. A Labour MP calls for a peaceful settlement for Israelis and Palestinians alike - and the Labour leadership suspends him for it. The attempt to demonise those opposing the current horror will only escalate - so we must speak louder. Support this show http://supporter.acast.com/the-owen-jones-podcast . Hosted on Acast.

Keir Starmer In Crisis Over Gaza 31.10.2023 14:30

Jewish Peace Activist: "We've Been Thrown Under A Bus" By Anti-Palestinian Crackdown 26.10.2023 14:10
