Yvette Cooper

Labour — Pontefract, Castleford and Knottingley

Speaking in the House of Commons on 18 November 2025

Debate

Gaza and Sudan

Contribution

My hon. Friend will know that my predecessor had already taken steps to halt the free trade discussions that were under way and to introduce sanctions for particular Israeli Ministers as a result of some of the things that were happening in the west bank. We need to ensure that the peace process under way now for Gaza includes a broader strategy for the west bank. We want to see that as part of this peace process, and as part of the work of the board of peace, and that is where we will be pursuing action.
