UCU statement on PMQs and and Palestinian refugees

'Keir Starmer and Kemi Badenoch today competed for whose moral standing could sink lowest. Such blatant cross-party racism against Palestinians who have been forced from their homes in a genocidal assault enabled by British bombs shames us all. We need an immediate total arms embargo on Israel, vocal opposition from the Prime Minister to Israeli-American plans to ethnically cleanse Gaza, and an apology for the disgusting scenes we witnessed in the House of Commons earlier. For Palestinians seeking refuge in Britain, there must be a non-restrictive visa scheme introduced.'
