Will the media finally do their job & ask No.10 who blocked the arrest warrant for Israeli Foreign Minister Gideon Saar during his UK visit?
It’s astonishing the PM insists he had no role in blocking a warrant for an unindicted war criminal.

Charities warn 4,800,000 children will be in poverty by 2029 if the two-child benefit cap stays.
A Labour government increasing record child poverty isn’t just cruel — it’s political suicide.
Time to scrap the cap, tax the super-rich and choose children — not austerity.
