Keir Starmer, the leader of the Labour Party, is facing internal and external challenges over the party's stance on the crisis in the Middle East. There are criticisms of his approach to issues related to Israel and the Palestinian cause. Some commentators highlight Starmer's uneasy relationship with New Labour and the risk of being associated with positions seen as anti-Western and anti-British. The resignation of Labour frontbencher Imran Hussain over the party's position on the Middle East crisis has also drawn attention. Starmer's leadership and the party's internal conflicts are the focus of intense scrutiny and debate.
