Jeremy Corbyn's Gaza Bill Highlights Divisions In Labour

On June 4, 2025, Jeremy Corbyn presented legislation in the House of Commons seeking an independent public inquiry into the United Kingdom’s involvement in the Israel-Hamas conflict since October 2023.
The bill was introduced in response to the Hamas attack on Israel in October 2023 and seeks to examine the United Kingdom’s involvement in supporting Israel through military, financial, and diplomatic channels during the subsequent conflict in Gaza.
Corbyn and nine Labour MPs, alongside other supporters, argue the inquiry should investigate arms sales, intelligence sharing, use of RAF bases in Cyprus, and legal advice on genocide allegations.
Corbyn stated that the investigation would reveal the concealed and troubling details of the UK’s involvement and emphasized that people have suffered unimaginable atrocities that should leave a lasting impact on our conscience.
The bill aims to ensure transparency and accountability regarding UK support for Israel, and its passage could deepen divisions within Labour and increase pressure on the government to change its Gaza policy.
