"He’s gaslighting all of us," says British columnist Owen Jones on Keir Starmer’s stance on Gaza.
Today on Real Talk, we sit down with Jones for a candid discussion on the unfolding of the Israel-Palestine war in British politics, particularly Labour leader Keir Starmer and his party’s stance on the situation in #Gaza, as it endures Israeli bombardment. We also speak on the "dehumanisation" of Palestinian voices and victims in the media.
This comes as new polling has shown a massive drop in support for the British Labour Party by the country's Muslim community, as anger over the party's pro-war stance on the Israeli onslaught on Gaza continues to mount.
#RealTalk is a Middle East Eye interview show hosted by Mohamed Hashem that delves into the stories and experiences of a diverse range of guests.
