Marie Sherlock (LAB), Labour Panel

We learned last week about the killing of Al Jazeera journalist, Shireen Abu Akleh. The scenes from her funeral, including the attack on that funeral by the Israeli defence forces, are ones that few of us will ever forget. The killing and subsequent behaviour of the Israeli state must be called out and wholly condemned. It was a callous attack on media freedom and the right to mourn. I call for statements in this House condemning the Israeli Government for those actions.
