You can argue black is white, but it doesn't change the reality. Everyone in the world knows there is a very clear connection. And your position is you'd rather back a UK war against one of the poorest countries on earth than lift a finger to help the Palestinian people.
"I totally reject the Houthis claims that attacking ships from around the world is somehow linked to the conflict in Gaza. These attacks do absolutely nothing for the Palestinian people", says Labour leader Sir Keir Starmer.
