This discussion highlights the need for a definitive, unbiased, history of Palestine since the 1940's. The BBC could make a documentary that would dispel all the recent propaganda and fake news.

In my view, Netanyahu has in an interest in stopping the plan after getting back the hostages and the bodies. The fact that the right wingers stayed in the cabinet means Netanyahu has promised this to them.

To date the net cost, for UK tax payer, to bail banks in 2008 is around £33 Billion. In November Rachel Reeves should recoup every penny by taxing banks accordingly. Remember Fred the Shred and his massive pension? He and his banking colleagues are laughing at the nation. Tax them all.

#politicslive airing the views of a serious tory tax evader.

Until people have spare cash to spend the UK economy will remain stagnant with little or no growth. The #conservativepartyconference is promoting failed trickle down economics whereas a trickle up economy would grow business and the economy.

Mel Stride: Cutting the civil service led to inadequate processing of asylum seekers which led to today's over use and expense of housing them in hotels.
Cause and effect. Conservatives learn nothing.
