We should have been told about the Hezbollah bomb-making factory
Many of us have never needed convincing about just how dangerous Hezbollah is. That’s why – alongside Jewish communal organisations and colleagues from across the House of Commons – we campaigned to have this antisemitic terror group proscribed in its entirety. Belatedly, and under much...

Whether Farage or Corbyn, we must reject the politics of scapegoating
We’re all too familiar with Nigel Farage’s fear-mongering populism.

Corbyn’s missed opportunity to reassure on Israel
Last week in Brighton, over 500 people attended Labour Friends of Israel’s annual Labour party conference reception. It was one of the biggest meetings at the conference, demonstrating the level and breadth of support that LFI continues to receive within the Labour party. One story, of...
