In response to Labour leader Sir Keir Starmer’s speech on the conflict in Gaza, Katy Chakrabortty, Oxfam’s head of advocacy said:
“A ceasefire is essential to saving lives and allowing aid to flow – to pretend otherwise isn’t credible. It is deeply disappointing that the Leader of the Opposition and the UK Government have continued to rebuff this vital humanitarian call. It matters what these leaders say, not least for ordinary Gazan people who need to know the world is listening to their pleas.
“Without a ceasefire, any relief for millions of people trapped in Gaza will inevitably be wholly insufficient and many more civilians will die needlessly.”
