Party leader insists calls for ceasefire and humanitarian pauses ‘come from the same place’
Keir Starmer sought to portray the Labour party as unified in its position on the Israel-Hamas conflict, as he insisted that calls for a ceasefire and humanitarian pauses were “coming from the same place”.
The Labour leader attempted to turn the attention back to the Conservatives, with an address to the North East Chamber of Commerce in County Durham on Friday in which he criticised the king’s speech as “a manifesto for the 14th year of Tory failure and the starting gun fired on the next general election”.
