Out of interest: is there any record of him expressing concern for the Palestinian plight?

We should be building bridges and furthering dialogue".[25][26]<br /><br />He gave a keynote speech at the 'We Believe in Israel’ conference, where he said "Each time I visit Israel, my admiration for that great country grows".[27]<br /><br />Following the 2015 general election, Dugher said Labour mishandled its relationship with the Jewish community through a combination of neglect and incompetence. He criticised Labour's response to the 2014 Gaza conflict and called the then Labour leader Ed Miliband’s decision to whip Labour MPs to vote for a motion recognising the State of Palestine as "catastrophic". Dugher abstained in the parliament vote on this matter, despite a three line whip and being a shadow cabinet minister.[28]Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4433144336299288135.post-18242334863783213692019-02-17T18:03:22.412+00:002019-02-17T18:03:22.412+00:00Murdoch and co do indeed have the BBC and C4.
