Probably had to workshop a shortlist of responses through several committees and focus groups before issuing it.

Starmer has himself now also described it as "un-British" to protest about the condition of Palestinians in the wake of the Manchester synagogue stabbing incident, and very unfortunate additional "friendly fire" casualties inflicted by the police, in support of earlier comments by the Home Secretary Shabana Mahmood.

This seems to me to be making the same category mistake as the synagogue stabber himself, namely treating the government of Israel and individual Jewish people as if they were equivalent.
