Starmer has already shown by his actions - many times - that he cannot be trusted in the slightest. He's broken every pledge he made to become Labour leader, why would promises to become PM be any different? Untrustworthy.

In Novermer 2021 addressing the Labour friends of Israel Starmer said " anti-Zionist antisemitism is the antithesis of the Labour tradition: It denies the Jewish people alone a right to self-determination;It equates Zionism with racism, focuses obsessively on the world’s sole Jewish state, and holds it to standards to which no other country is subjected". In 2020 he said any criticism of the state of Israel is a form of anti-semitism to quote him directly "I said it loud and clear - and meant it - that I support Zionism without qualification.” This is why the response of Labour to the genocide in Gaza is beyond appalling.
