A voice for the region’s concerned mothers  by Naama Barak Wolfman  Since 7 October 2023, our lives have been marked by fear, grief and pain. Recent days have seen anger and frustration added to this unfortunate list. But, at ​Women Wage Peace​, we refuse to let despair shape the future. We do not represent governments;…

LFI statement on the UK government’s recognition of Palestinian statehood

Posted 21 September, 2025 in Hamas, Israel, Israel-Hamas 2023 conflict, Labour Party, News, Palestinian Territories, Peace process
While we do not doubt the sincerity of the government’s intentions and share its desire to see an end to the tragic conflict in Gaza, we strongly disagree with the decision to recognise a Palestinian state at this point. Recognition of a Palestinian state outside of a meaningful peace process will change nothing on the…

LFI statement on the situation in Gaza

Posted 1 September, 2025 in Hamas, Israel, Israel-Hamas 2023 conflict, News, Palestinian Territories, Peace process
LFI stands with the vast majority of the Israeli people who want to end the war and free the hostages, who Hamas have held in appalling conditions for nearly 700 days. Hamas’ murderous assault on southern Israel on 7 October triggered a conflict which has brought about terrible suffering for innocent Israelis and Palestinians alike.…

LFI statement on Palestinian recognition

Posted 29 July, 2025 in Hamas, Israel, Israel-Hamas 2023 conflict, Labour Party, News, Palestinian Territories, Peace process
LFI shares our government’s desire to end the devastating conflict in Gaza; secure the release of the Israeli hostages and address the catastrophic humanitarian situation by ensuring more desperately needed aid for its people; and help advance the cause of a two-state solution. We strongly support a negotiated two-state solution as the only means to guarantee…

LFI statement on Israeli strikes against Iranian nuclear facilities

Posted 13 June, 2025 in Iran, Israel, Israel-Hamas 2023 conflict, Middle East, News
The malign activities of the Iranian regime - including its nuclear ambitions - are a grave threat to Israel, the Middle East, Ukraine and the UK. Again and again, Iranian leaders have made plain their intention to destroy Israel. Their attempts to develop nuclear weapons pose an existential threat to the world’s only Jewish…

LFI statement on sanctions against Ben Gvir and Smotrich

Posted 10 June, 2025 in Israel, Israel-Hamas 2023 conflict, Israeli Politics, Labour Party, News
We welcome the government’s decision to impose sanctions on Itamar Ben-Gvir and Bezalel Smotrich. LFI has consistently supported action against violent extremists in the West Bank, as well as action to rein in illegal settlement outposts. We also opposed the presence of these far-right ministers in the current government, recognising that their agenda is antithetical…

LFI statement on the humanitarian situation in Gaza

Posted 23 May, 2025 in Hamas, Israel, Israel-Hamas 2023 conflict, News, Palestinian Territories, Peace process
The humanitarian situation in Gaza is worsening and must be urgently addressed. As we have consistently argued, Israel must ensure that humanitarian aid can flow freely into Gaza. We abhor Hamas’ theft and profiteering and its cynical use of the people of Gaza as human shields, but restrictions on aid are utterly unacceptable. Hamas must…
