Sir Keir Starmer

Labour — Holborn and St Pancras

Speaking in the House of Commons on 14 October 2025

Debate

Middle East

Contribution

First and foremost, I thank my hon. Friend for raising the specific issue of the aid workers who have lost their lives in this conflict. Very many lives have been lost. Almost all aid workers have lost colleagues, friends and family members; I have heard some of that testimony at first hand, and it is extremely powerful. This must now be a process that does involve Palestinians in their own future—of course it must. That is the only way to get to the two-state solution that we need.
