Israeli forces have kidnapped Scots who were trying to deliver humanitarian aid to Gaza. Aid must urgently be allowed to reach Gaza and those kidnapped by the IDF must be released.

Seems pretty clear to me it's just a reminder that Labor will stick the boot in if you're poor because there's a "community expectation" they do so. That scares me as a trans woman.
