In a long debate on Gaza in parliament yesterday, only two MPs mentioned genocide -- Jeremy Corbyn and Adnan Hussein.
David Lammy spoke of "our friends in the Israeli government".

Our tabloid press in the UK are so craven...
...that when a foreign billionaire in a foreign government attacks our national reputation - they make no effort at national defence or balance in reporting, but just eat up and regurgitate the red meat. The British tabloid press is anti-British.
Prof Alexis Jay, chair of public inquiry into child sexual abuse, says further national inquiry into grooming gangs isn’t needed & would delay action.
“The time has passed for more inquiries, we’ve had enough… We’ve set out action required & people should just get on with it, nationally & locally”

The UK recently admitted that it had reviewed 413 potential violations of International Humanitarian Law (IHL) by Israel in Gaza - and found only two breaches.
Now, the Foreign Office won't say if Israel's airstrike on an aid convoy, killing three Britons, was even investigated as a breach of IHL.
Good grief. 😂

Professor Alexis Jay said that starting a new inquiry could hinder the implementation of the recommendations from her 2022 report. "We have set out what action is required and people should just get on with it," she told the BBC. She added: "I've certainly been very unhappy about the politicisation of child sexual exploitation and child sexual abuse in the way that many people, sometimes in a very uninformed way, have waded into the argument."
Professor Alexis Jay, who led a 7-year review of sexual abuse which reported in 2022, says starting a new inquiry would delay any implementation of her own recommendations:

In 2011, Keir Starmer blocked the arrest of Tzipi Livni - Israel's foreign minister during the brutal bombing of Gaza in 2008/09 - over alleged war crimes.
The CPS is now censoring Starmer's emails about how that decision was made.
