Labour’s amendment comes after the SNP tabled a motion calling for a ceasefire.
With calls for a ceasefire in Gaza growing after the deaths of more than 29,000 Palestinians, including more than 10,000 children, the Labour Party is hoping to gather support for its own amendment – backing an “immediate humanitarian ceasefire” which lasts and is observed by all sides.
Labour’s amendment comes after the SNP tabled a motion calling for a ceasefire.
Shadow Foreign Secretary David Lammy told the BBC yesterday that Labour’s amendment “reflects the complexity of the situation” and the desire for “a lasting humanitarian ceasefire”.
He contrasted this with the SNP motion, which he said “feels unbalanced”. Labour’s amendment backs an “immediate humanitarian ceasefire” which lasts and is observed by all sides.
It remains to be seen whether the Commons speaker accepts Labour’s amendment, but as of earlier this morning, there were 142 Labour MPs or Labour-turned-independent MPs who were listed as having added their names to the Labour amendment.
Here’s the full list of the 142 MPs putting their name to Labour’s ceasefire amendment:
