Australian MP breaks down in tears as she speaks of the genocide in Gaza

youtube.com/watch?v=RB5RUV8by0

‘As my baby slept peacefully next to me, I saw images of Palestinian babies, their feet poking out of the rubble.’

Over 792 Palestinians have been killed since Israel resumed air strikes on Gaza on 18 March, ending a ceasefire with Hamas that had lasted almost two months.

Just my thought. I'm glad there's one fewer #Tory but when an #MP jumps ship from one party to another there should be a #by-election. Their #election is based on being a member of specific party or an #independent candidate. Changing their #political mind is fine but the #voters should be asked. Otherwise it seems like a form of #VoterSuppresion.

POLITICO · PMQs scorecard: Sunak reels as Natalie Elphicke jumps ship to LabourBy Noah Keate

It's curious how some peope are treated like this but here's a whole load of other, a more powerful #elite, who can knowingly take thousands & lose neither their job nor their #home.
There are a lot of us, let's call us non-elite, and it's about time we corrected the #justice imbalance.
