David Burton-Sampson

Labour — Southend West and Leigh

Speaking in the House of Commons on 8 September 2026

Debate

Israel and Palestine

Contribution

I, too, welcome these measures. We must see the Palestinian people protected and clear progress towards a two-state solution. I am proud of the Government’s stance. However, I must speak on behalf of my Jewish constituents, who have continually talked to me about the rise in antisemitism. Will the Foreign Secretary assure me that the Government will continue to work towards greater community cohesion in this country and ensure that all British Jews and all British Muslims are protected?
