Last week, we met Middle East Minister @hfalconermp.bsky.social
to discuss the importance of a lasting, peaceful solution to the conflict in the Middle East.

We hope that the ceasefire will hold, that all the hostages will come home and that a renewed peace process can begin.

John Prescott was a politician both behind and ahead of his time. Considered too bluff and old Labour to reach to the very top in the 90s, today his authenticity and class credentials would have been perfect to fight Farage and populism. Labour needs more like him.
