KEIR Starmer has been accused of having “gravely misrepresented” a meeting with Muslim leaders in Wales.
In a statement issued on Tuesday evening, the centre apologised “for the hurt and confusion” caused by hosting Starmer, and said the intention was to highlight the suffering of people in Palestine.
In response, the centre said: “We wish to stress Keir Starmer’s social media post and images gravely misrepresented our congregants and the nature of the visit. It comes after 15 Labour officials in Scotland resigned over party rules about responding to the conflict in Gaza. “I made it clear it is not and has never been my view that Israel had the right to cut off water, food, fuel or medicines.We know there are thousands of National readers who want to debate, argue and go back and forth in the comments section of our stories. We’ve got the most informed readers in Scotland, asking each other the big questions about the future of our country.
