Summary

War in Gaza is getting worse by the day. How is Labour and the rest of Europe dealing with the conflict between Israel and Hamas? TIME writer Yasmeen Serhan has been speaking to people inside the war zone – she shares what she’s learned from those conversations. Plus, who on Earth would want to be an MP in today's day and age? Well, hundreds apparently. Will the next generation emerge to be great political leaders? Or will we be short of Parliamentary talent once again? "I can understand why people would look at this issue and not want to touch it with a 10 foot pole” – Yasmeen Serhan. “Keir Starmer’s problem with this is going ‘what would Jeremy Corbyn do in this situation?’ and doing the opposite of that” – Marie Le Conte. “I think to run as an MP you’ve got to be quite weird” – Marie Le Conte.
