After two years of destruction, people in Gaza lack the most basic supplies in the midst of winter. Israel’s decision condemns them to further suffering and - in the worst cases - death for lack of access to food, clean water and medical supplies.

Normalising mass killing should not be rewarded, and banning Israel from Eurovision is the least we can do. LDFP are dismayed at Ed ignoring the genocide of 70,000 Palestinians (347 since a so-called “ceasefire” was called.) Ed’s statement does not represent the views of our members and supporters.

Lib Dem leader Ed Davey hiding behind the pretend 'ceasefire' (which is the point of it) & saying its wrong for countries to boycott Eurovision. Pathetic. Supporting BDS is the very least anyone can do

Freezing of repayment threshold for graduates from 2027 is a further stealth tax and an attack on young people who will have less income as they start in life. It’s a tax on opportunity, raising over £1.2b for the Treasury from 2027-2031.
