HUMZA Yousaf has launched a furious attack on the Prime Minister and the UK Labour leader for failing to call for a ceasefire in Gaza.
The First Minister, whose in-laws are trapped in the region due to the hostilities, said he cannot understand the positions of Rishi Sunak and Sir Keir Starmer - both of whom have stopped short of calling for an end to fighting to allow civilians to leave and aid to enter the territory.“We are seeing thousands of people die, children die,” he said.
The Labour leader has moved to back calls, including from the Prime Minister, for a move to humanitarian pauses in a bid to protect civilians. “What we have also said is that we need to ensure that there is protection of civilian life, that we ensure all necessary aid supplies can get into Gaza and reach people who need them, and that continues to be our position.”
Hoyle said he would work behind the scenes to see what could be done “under those special circumstances”. “If that takes place, Mr Speaker, I appreciate it is the Government that determines whether or not Parliament is recalled. “What I would say is I’ll work through the usual channels to try and ensure, quite rightly, that we would look to see what could be done under those special circumstances.”
