Keir Starmer will today reject calls for a ceasefire in the ongoing war between Israel and Hamas.
Many frontbenchers have broken ranks with the party leadership to back the demands.
In his first public comments since the row erupted, Starmer will this morning say that he instead supports a “humanitarian pause” to allow vital aid to get into Gaza.
He will say he understands the calls for a complete ceasefire, but insist that would just allow Hamas to regroup and launch another terror attack on Israel.
