Keir Starmer’s Labour conference speech: The main points

Sir Keir Starmer has delivered his first Labour Party conference speech as prime minister.

In a speech briefly disrupted by a pro-Palestine protester, he addressed the new government’s unpopular cuts to the winter fuel allowance, and warned of further tough decisions to turn the country around.

However, there were some announcements which will be welcome to many, including the introduction of a Hillsborough law, and guaranteed homes for veterans, young care leavers, and victims of domestic abuse.

Trump’s Gaza ‘Riviera’ Plan Sparks Massive Arab Summit; Egypt, Gulf Nations To Counter Gaza's Plan

Trump’s Gaza ‘Riviera’ Plan has sparked massive outrage in the Muslim World. U.S. President Donald Trump’s controversial plan to turn Gaza into a Middle Eastern ‘Riviera’ has triggered a major Arab summit in Saudi Arabia. Leaders from Egypt, Jordan, the UAE, Qatar, and other Gulf nations are gathering to discuss a unified response to the proposal, which involves expelling Gaza’s Palestinian population. While Cairo has proposed an alternative reconstruction plan, divisions remain over who should govern Gaza post-war. As regional tensions escalate, the summit is expected to shape the future of Gaza and broader Middle East geopolitics. #TrumpGazaPlan #GazaRiviera #TrumpMiddleEast #GazaCleanOut #TrumpGazaPolicy #ArabSummit #PalestinianCrisis #MiddleEastConflict #GazaCrisis #TrumpIsrael #HamasConflict #GazaWar #TrumpForeignPolicy #IsraelHamasWar #Geopolitics ~HT.318~ED.346~PR.152~GR.124~

Hezbollah’s Explosive Warning Shocks Israel| Qassem Gives Deadline for IDF Withdrawal, Blasts Trump

Hezbollah’s explosive warning has sent shockwaves through Israel, as the group’s Deputy Secretary-General Sheikh Naim Qassem issued a final ultimatum demanding the full withdrawal of Israeli forces from Lebanese territory by February 18. In a fiery statement, Qassem warned of severe consequences if Israel fails to comply, escalating fears of a potential military confrontation.

Houthis Threaten Big Attack Over Trump's Gaza Cleanout Plan | 'Worried About Jews? Move Them To U.S'

Houthi leader Abdul-Malik al-Houthi has issued a stark warning against U.S. President Donald Trump’s plan to relocate Palestinians from Gaza, calling it a "criminal" scheme to empty Palestine. In a fiery speech, he threatened military intervention, including missile and drone strikes, if the plan is enforced by force. Al-Houthi provocatively suggested that if the U.S. is concerned about Jewish welfare, it should relocate them to America instead. The Houthis have already launched over 40 missiles and 320 drones at Israel and vow to resume attacks if Trump’s plan moves forward. #HouthiThreats #TrumpGazaPlan #MiddleEastCrisis #PalestineConflict #IsraelIranTensions #USForeignPolicy #MilitaryEscalation #Geopolitics #RegionalWar #GazaDisplacement #DroneStrikes #MissileThreat #ArabResistance #BreakingNews #GlobalTensions Also Read First Israeli Hostages Released from Hamas Reunite with Their Mothers After Over 15 Months Apart :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/first-israeli-hostages-reunite-with-mothers-in-israel-011-4048195.html?ref=DMDesc Israel-Hezbollah Ceasefire Remains Intact Despite Violations and Tensions :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/fragile-israel-hezbollah-ceasefire-holding-despite-violations-011-4033663.html?ref=DMDesc Iran-Israel Conflict: Amid Escalating Tensions, Here's A Look At Tehran's Fire Power :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/iran-israel-conflict-amid-escalating-tensions-heres-a-look-at-tehrans-fire-power-3970939.html?ref=DMDesc
