.@JessPhillips is a proud parliamentary supporter of Labour Friends of Israel. Israel is an apartheid state currently committing genocide against the Palestinians. This has to be a redline. Birmingham Yardley must kick her out and elect anti-genocide candidate @jodymcintyremp. https://t.co/6SuG8L3b1c
