Europe's ambition must be a Union that does more to protect its people.

That is fairer and more united.

That makes lives better and less complicated.

Appalled at the attack at a synagogue in Manchester on Yom Kippur.

My thoughts are with the victims, their loved ones and all the Jewish community in the United Kingdom.

There can be no place for hate, anti-Semitism and extremism in our societies.

This is a pivotal moment that can finally bring about the end to the inter-generational cycle of bloodshed, terror and violence.

There is a clear alternative to perpetual war. It must be seized.

The plan could give security to Israel; it could give Palestinians a real perspective for their legitimate aspirations towards self-determination and Statehood, and provides hope to the entire region.

Should Hamas accept the peace plan, it would mean that the guns could fall silent; the hostages can return home; the suffering could end; more aid could get to those in need; that protects against mass displacement; and ensures that Hamas can no longer play any role in the future governance of Gaza.
