Israeli air strikes have hit Al Ahli hospital in Gaza. More than 500 people - patients, doctors & those sheltering - have been killed. What unspeakable horror. We will mourn their loss forever. Our leaders could have spoken up for peace. They chose to cheer on war instead.

This is a banner which was hung in at least three schools in York by the South Bank Trust, a MAT. It is harmful to young people and their families, and it is dishonest. This is why. 1/
