Yousuf Motala has called on Sir Keir Starmer to resign as Labour Party leader
A long-serving Lancashire county councillor has called on Sir Keir Starmer to resign over the stance the Labour Party has taken on the war in Gaza – accusing him of countenancing the killing of “innocent civilians”.
He said that it was “beyond my comprehension” – and declared that the party under Sir Keir’s leadership had “lost core values and ethos” by “allow Israel to exterminate innocent civilians full-scale revenge attacks on the Gaza Strip and in the West Bank”. “You’ve got to have some empathy… feeling – and if you don’t for human life, then you think to yourself, what is all this about? at least ask for a ceasefire that is immediate – and forget about these corridors and temporary breaks .”
Sobia Malik, the Lancashire county councillor who represents Burnley Central East, became the first Labour member of County Hall to quit the party late last week. Asked by the LDRS whether he would consider following her out of the door, County Cllr Motala – who once chaired the North West regional committee on international development – said that he was “seriously considering” his position.
TEDDY BEAR TRIBUTE The names of thousands of Palestinian children killed since the conflict in Gaza began a month ago were read out by Lancashire youngsters and their parents during a vigil held at Preston’s Flag Market on Saturday.
