On a recent trip to Egypt in October, I was asked to be a guest on a late night talk show to share my views on the situation in Palestine and Israel but also in particular to how this is playing out in Europe. It was one of the hardest interviews I’ve given. The interviewer struggled to grasp that there was sympathy from western countries for the Palestinian people. It’s no wonder they think all westerners support Israel given our governments stance and refusal to call for a ceasefire. UK politicians do not speak for me. #ceasefire
