REACTION: UK's David Lammy UNRWA Funding Renewal - Dr Einat Wilf

UNRWA are one of the chief causes of the ongoing conflict.

[RichardHarwood-vs]

He should be jailed for supporting terrorism

[dartskipper]

I live in the UK so believe me Lammy is wrong about everything and anything. Everything that he says bears no resemblance to reality, and as for sensible ideas and policies, Hell will freeze over before he ever gets one.

[jimjames]

I'm disgusted with the Labour government. They know full well UNRWA aren't good at distributing aid, in fact they are notoriously bad at distributing anything especially money! They resist all attempts at transparency and have a tendency to divert billions of funds to Hamas instead of where it's supposed to go.

[kekesam]

What he says is not simply wrong, it's intentionally deceitful narrative!

[barneyreichman]

Lammy is one of our Governments star players, really shows you how much trouble Britain is in!!

[jspau]

I've found myself asking the same thing - "Surely these leaders can't possibly believe this utter nonsense that they are saying". But now it makes perfect sense - they aren't interested in the truth, they're just concerned with whatever best suits their own interests and are willing to lie for the sake of the narrative.

[lorna]

Are the British people ever consulted about where this money goes? Lammey is totally inept and should never have been granted the position he now holds. Dangerous behaviour.

[politicas]

Great interview earlier Ollie. Dr Wilf is a Jewish hero. While on the other side of the political spectrum from me she demonstrates Jewish moral excellence that transcends ideology with world class oratorial and persuasive skills. Israel and all of us should be proud of her. Kudos for nabbing her.
I refuse to entertain the Bevin hypothesis that the problem is "insurmountable". The solution is crystal clear. From the river to the sea - Israeli sovereignty.

[geeboom]

The Dutch politician Geert Wilders very recently caused a diplomatic kerfuffle by stating the obvious fact that the so called Palestinians already have a state. It's called Jordan.
We should promote this idea. The British mandate Palestine became the State of Israel and the kingdom of Jordan.
Israel, annex Gaza, Judea and Samaria. These are your lands. Without them you have undefendable borders.
From the river ro the sea one Jewish state of Israel.
The Arabs can move to their state in Jordan. Or Egypt where most Gazans come from.

[constantlyenthused]

Can’t wait to watch this plank have to deal with Trump. He is so out of his depth

[jkkjeldsen]

Lammy also believes that men can "grow a cervix" and that next King after Henry VIII was Henry VII. So it's possible that he's just stupid rather than evil, but he needs to go regardless.

[PearlF]

To think as a UK tax payer, my payment could be potentially used to fund Gaza tunnels is just unacceptable.

[jeffreyport]

Wasn't UNRWA facilities also hiding and supporting HAMAS?

[anuragsinha]

Has David Lammy ever been right about Anything?

[susanaffonso]

UNRWA is Hamas !what rock have you been living under?

[maggiedouglas]

Not sure that David Lammy is smart cookie. A fool given power

[AnitaMarnell]

Who did he actually speak too in Israel and hasn't someone pointed out to him how antisemitic most of the UN is

[scrumdiddle]

Lammy is wrong in everything he says 😠😠😠

[rebeccaaharon]

Shameful and shameless. The government should be looking after their own ppl, the ex military who are sometimes homeless and those afflicted with poverty. And basically they should get their own household in order (Leeds)

[sheilacypukovas]

How much money he received to said this insanity?
