Andy Burnham has blocked Jeremy Corbyn’s call for a public inquiry into Britain's role in Gaza.
“We will never give up until we have brought about justice for the Palestinian people,” the former Labour leader said.
In light of the move, we've taken a look back at Corbyn's demands for an independent inquiry into the UK's complicity with Israel's genocide:

David Hearst, editor-in-chief of Middle East Eye, says that watching NAZA, a documentary featuring interviews with members of an elite Israeli army unit involved in supplying targets for what he describes as genocide, should be “compulsory” for Britain’s liberal Zionists
Six vetoes, one country. Since Israel's genocidal war on Gaza began, the US has shielded Israel at the UN — blocking Security Council resolutions, Palestine's membership bid, UNRWA funding and even sanctioning the ICC.

Οι εκλογές της Κυριακής θα καθορίσουν τη μοίρα της βραζιλιάνικης δημοκρατίας, τη μοίρα της λατινοαμερικανικής κυριαρχίας και την σωτηρία των τροπικών δασών του Αμαζόνιου — δηλαδή, τη μοίρα ολόκληρης της Ανθρωπότητας.
Σ' έναν υγιή κόσμο, οι εντεινόμενες προσπάθειες του Τραμπ και του Ζάκερμπεργκ να επαναφέρουν τον Μπολσονάρο στην εξουσία θα αποτελούσαν πρωτοσέλιδο, αλλά, δυστυχώς… δεν είμαστε αρκετά τυχεροί να ζούμε σε σ' έναν τέτοιο κόσμο.
Αντ' αυτού, ζούμε σ' έναν κόσμο που κάνει τα στραβά μάτια όσο Τραμπ και Ζάκερμπεργκ επενδύουν τόσα στη νίκη Μπολσονάρο (δηλαδή στην ήττα της Ανθρωπότητας) στον δεύτερο γύρο της Κυριακής.

Nobel Peace Prize laureate Navi Pillay has called for Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to stand trial for genocide in Gaza. https://t.co/0b3ECHFEgo
🚨 Indigna ver a agentes de la policía británica ejercer violencia contra una persona en el suelo. El uniforme no da derecho a pisotear la dignidad humana de migrantes de cualquier raza siempre que sean de piel morena o traigan ropas que indiquen sus raíces no anglo. Esta actuación exige investigación y rendición de cuentas. La autoridad que abusa debe responder ante la justicia.
The president called an African country a ‘shit house’ on camera. I remember the old days - his first term! - when calling African countries ‘shit holes’ was a huge controversy that had to be denied.
We have normalized his Neo-Nazism now. Lucky us.
It is reassuring to see the US justice system deflecting political attempts to penalise US civil society for supporting the ICC investigation and human rights work. Pursuing justice is not a crime.
A new UN report by Special Rapporteur Francesca Albanese exposes the role of influential international media and digital platforms in facilitating genocide in Gaza, legitimising atrocities and obstructing accountability.

Four Palestinian civilians killed by the israelis in drone strike attacks across Gaza, along with multiple blast, shrapnel and gunshot injuries https://t.co/O50s2y1dd8
Calgary’s opera house has removed bass singer Gabriel Sanchez-Ortega from his role in future performances of ‘Tosca’ after he raised a Palestinian flag on stage.
The singer says he has no regrets, while the opera house called his action a violation of company policy.
When Israeli settlers violently attack Palestinians, the government ignores if not encourages them, but now that the world is focused on settler attacks against an American journalist and European diplomats, suddenly ten people are arrested. We get it. https://t.co/iLY3NGhrBC
Despite Israel’s efforts to deny its direct evidence, the film NAZA is receiving rave reviews because it powerfully reveals the Israeli military’s clinical devaluing of Palestinian civilian life in Gaza, all told by Israeli military officers themselves. https://t.co/63ZlxJggOp
I can’t think of any other place in the world where people can regularly attack American citizens, American journalists, like this and our US political and media elites say nothing. No scandal, no outrage, no calls for action or accountability.
Thank you to everyone who stood with me over the years. It’s been a scary journey but I have always been grounded in my work and ability to provide exemplary service to my constituents. Trump and his administration have been after me since I arrived in Congress. I have always stood up to him and that will never change. The pedophile protector will never silence me.
Typical Israeli ploy -- it commits some outrage against Palestinians; a lying denial isn't plausible, so it says it will "investigate," but as the public furor recedes, it somehow never gets around to announcing the result of the supposed investigation. https://t.co/NSnNzqwbh6
