  • “If you do not want to lose the Muslim community for a generation, if you do not want to throw seats into existential crisis, and just the moral case, you must call for an immediate ceasefire in Gaza,” says Ali Milani, chair of the Labour Muslim Network.
    A recent poll has shown that British Muslims’ support for Labour has fallen from 86% in 2019 down to 43% when you factor in undecided voters or 60% when you ignore undecided voters. British Muslims, once a solid voter base for the party, are now less likely to support Labour due to its wavering stance on Gaza.

      yep.... not even our labour unions in Germany are speaking out on this. Germany, the UK and France seem to be its worst offenders in this topic. Turks already don't trust the German political parties, I can assume the same for our Maghrebi-Arab and Tamazight French sisters and brothers or our South Asians in the UK.

      Keir Starmer seriously thought that he could transform Labour into the Tories 2.0, because of how many ppl hate the conservatives now. He should've just either STFU or open his mouth in support. That guy is as unqualified to be a leader as his Tory peers.
