Meet the Palestinian activist picked to beat Pro Israel Wes Streeting!

A British Palestinian activist, Leanne Mohamad, has been selected to stand as an Independent against pro Israel Labour MP Wes Streeting.
Right, so a wee while ago I did a video following up on all the pro Palestine demonstrations happening in the constituency of Keir Starmer’s most loyal minion, the shadow Health Secretary Wes Streeting. Streeting is not only in lockstep with Starmer on everything, he’s hell bent on bringing even more privatisation into the NHS, as well as being a devoted member of Labour Friends of Israel, is heavily backed by the Israel lobby and has ignored the uproar there has been locally in his constituency, Ilford North and the area covered by Redbridge Borough Council, which Streeting’s constituency falls under. In fact it has been the Redbridge Community Action Group, so sick of Streeting’s pro Israel, pro Starmer ways, that organised protests consisting of hundreds of Streeting’s constituents and have organised a candidate to stand against him, standing up not just for Ilford North, but as a British Palestinian woman, their chosen candidate, Leanne Mohamad, will also be standing up for the rights of Palestine.
Right, so really bad news for Wes Streeting means a good news story for this channel and frankly good news for the country, as a guy bought and paid for via donations linked to both the private health lobby and the Israel lobby is not somebody you want anywhere near the levers of power, is not somebody who will reverse the privatisation that has already happened in our health service and indeed isn’t even capable of calling for a ceasefire as Israel commits genocide, such is his and the Labour Party under Keir Starmer as a whole really, and their devotion to the Israeli state, no question ever as to who’s side they are on, when they’d rather side with a nation committing genocide than call for it to stop, preferring humanitarian pauses, or ceasefires that aren’t, but it sounds good if you put the word sustainable in front. It sounds a lot better if you use the word permanent instead, but Labour won’t do that.
This is particularly foolish of Wes Streeting to do, because his constituency has a significant Muslim vote and that’s a big chunk of vote that he is in effect spurning, and when the Muslim vote was formerly one Labour could take for granted, losing it could be costly to a number of Labour MPs. Starmer has now made this even worse by shifting Labour to a position of no longer backing the recognition of a Palestinian State, so he’s very much being leant on by the Israel Lobby right now, choosing to announce that policy move here and now of all times, shunning that Muslim vote even further, and actually when you consider that this is a guy who regularly mixes Zionism with antisemitism, the fact he recognises and supports a Jewish state of Israel ,but now has announced he won’t do likewise for a Muslim state of Palestine, by his own measure, his announcement is therefore Islamophobic.

Hi, I'm Damien Willey. I'm a former welder, but now I'm a writer, blogger, vlogger and presenter and interviewer with Socialist Telly (Please do go and visit what we all get up to on https://www.youtube.com/c/SocialistTelly)
