Palestine

Acting on the issues you care about

Jim McMahon has supported the Labour Party’s longstanding call for a two-state solution, with Palestinians and Israelis living in equality, peace, and security.

Jim has spoken in parliament for innocent victims killed, injured, displaced, and those left desolate, including many women and children who simply want to live in peace and security.

He has met with Muslim and Jewish faith leaders and spoken about the rise in islamophobia and antisemitism in Oldham and across the country.

He has responded to hundreds of emails from concerned constituents, and provided regular updates on social media.

Jim has met with the Palestinian Ambassador sharing the strength of support for peace and local fundraising efforts.

A Labour government will recognise Palestine as an essential step on the path to a lasting two-state solution.

  • Immediate ceasefire
  • Urgent aid for civilians
  • Release hostages
  • Recognise Palestine
  • Uphold International Law
