Of the 134 back-bench Labour MPs who signed a letter to Starmer calling for the urgent recognition of the state of Palestine only 4 were from Wales.
So: Respect and thanks to Tonia Antoniazzi (Gower), Catherine Fookes (Monmouthshire), Ruth Jones (Newport West & Islwyn) and Steve Witherden (Montgomeryshire & Glyndwr ).
And to the rest of Wales’s Labour back benchers who didn’t, you should be ashamed of yourselves!
And yet again we have to ask: why are Wales Labour MPs so much worse than the pretty low standard set by the English ones ?
