I don't know what impact this may have, but I pray it does have an impact and that other - everyone - follows Bolivia's lead. I don't know what to say anymore. I've been watching that video of the bombed refugee camp and it is utter Armageddon. Those poor, poor people. I've never seen anything like it in my life.

Hopefully all of the rest of us will do the same.
If our Pm says one more time that we are 'standing with Israel' I'll do my nut.

It has a symbolic impact. I hope many more will follow, even tiny ones. The symbolism is important. I salute it for its responsible stance.

I didn't see the videos/ photos. I stopped. I can't stomach the horror anymore. This is dystopian horror. Absolutely heartbreaking.

Sunak is a spineless scumbag. Playing at being PM because he's bored with all the money he has. A little hobby for him.....until shit gets serious then he has to hide behind Biden's skirts.

And that useless Starmer is no better. He doesn't know what time of day it is. Stupid, dithering charlie.

Agreed. Despicable.

Finally. I hope other countries follow. Sunak is an embarrassment.

ChickHenLittle · 31/10/2023 21:10

Hopefully the first of many.

He needs to speak up now and distance himself from this. Supporting Israel after the hideous Hamas massacre is one thing. My sympathies were with Israel too then. Supporting this ongoing murder of innocents is quite another thing.

Wrote to my local Labour MP today to say I will not be voting Labour. Can’t vote Tory either. I am disgusted with most UK politicians.

flufferknutter · 31/10/2023 21:21

I wrote to my Labour MP, but I don't expect an answer. She won't know what to say because their leader is a dithering dunce. They're all spineless. No moral character.

juju99 · 31/10/2023 21:24

Thank you, Bolivia. I hope other countries follow their example and finally stand up for what is right, for people who aren’t able to stand up for themselves. I hope our western leaders feel ashamed of themselves for not being amongst the first to do so.

And I hope we don’t forget how Sunak and Starmer responded to this when it’s time to vote. Sunak’s ‘I want you to win’ is something I’m never going to forget. He made himself look like an impotent, weak, spineless hypocrite who does not deserve to be the leader of any country.

Bolivia 🤣

bellac11 · 31/10/2023 21:33

I knew someone would make a comment like that because its Bolivia

I suspect others will follow and thats whats important

Wow, laughing at a time like this.

Wow

PurpleChrayne · 31/10/2023 21:31

Bolivia 🤣

I think the fact it’s a country like Bolivia makes it even more shameful that none of the so-called western democracies have spoken out to end the killing of innocent men, women and children.

bellac11 · 31/10/2023 21:39

Thats right, rather than it being funny, its embarrassing for the other countries.

Zygoma · 31/10/2023 21:41

PurpleChrayne · 31/10/2023 21:31

Bolivia 🤣

You are showing your true self here. Mocking both a small nation and the murder of innocent refugees. You should be ashamed. Especially as someone who goes round reporting threads and accusing posters of all sorts. It is really not a good look.

ChickHenLittle · 31/10/2023 21:41

PurpleChrayne · 31/10/2023 21:31

Bolivia 🤣

Come now, you may have had a lot of sweets tonight but there's still school in the morning.

Roste · 31/10/2023 21:46

@juju99 , I agree. I will never forget what Sunak said and was left astounded at his stupidity. Sycophant.
Starmer is not much better. I feel politically homeless, neither party will get my vote.

Please ladies, we all know that there are pps whose only job on Mumsnet is to derail threads about one topic. I would respectfully ask you to not engage with them. Please ignore silly comments and report offensive ones.
Let's focus on the most important stuff 🇵🇸.

Has Bolivia severed ties with Russia?

Politically homeless, that's exactly how I feel right now.

Show quote history

I agree. Bolivia doesn't have a great human rights record, if they are so appalled they are willing to cut diplomatic ties then it probably means you're doing something really bad.

What's our excuse? Sunak is fucking spineless. Someone should tell him the Palestinians don't have time for subtle diplomacy, they need help right now.

ssd · 31/10/2023 21:57

Our politicians have utterly disgraced themselves. Sunak looking up to Netanyahu saying i hope Israel win is an image I hope haunts him one day.
