Labour MP says Israel killed Yemen’s Prime Minister in Parliament.

[CaramelPecan]

Asks why the government is still supporting Israel due to this and what steps the UK government is taking to support Yemen in achieving peace, reconstruction and development, and ending the humanitarian crisis.

Didn’t Israel just help them start to achieve that?

How can someone like this be an MP?

Gobsmacking!

Don't think assassinating anyone is ever going to achieve peace. I think everything the Israeli government is doing is very shortsighted and will perpetuate more violence, not less

A lot of people seem to think the Houthis are the government of Yemen. It’s quite surprising really.

Oof that's embarrassing. Especially several days after the fact!

Well the Houthis much like Hamas are never going to surrender and stop attacking Israel, as they are Iranian backed terrorists as are Hamas.

The point was an elected MP of the UK government either being wilfully uninformed about, or supporting, a group our allies have designated as a terrorist group, and against who we have conducted strikes against as self defence following attacks on Royal Navy ships.

To that end, it would be useful to know whether this member of our legislature would still think the same about this specific military action if she understood who'd actually been assassinated.

Shouldn’t an MP, on a tax payer funded £90k salary, have researched and understood topics they want to raise in Parliament though!

Preferably!

Since she evidently didn’t, I'd like to know whether she's still got those same concerns now she knows what actually happened.

Godd questions. Hopefully someone will put them to her.
