Disruption at Rachel Reeves' speech
A Gaza protestor caused a stir at the Labour conference by interrupting Rachel Reeves' keynote address. Dressed in a smart suit, the young man shouted for ministers to stop selling arms to Israel, prompting cheers from the audience as security escorted him out.
Labour's response
As the protestor was removed, Rachel Reeves emphasized that Labour is no longer just a party of protest, but one that represents working people. This incident comes after Foreign Secretary David Lammy announced a partial embargo on weapons exports to Israel in August, with calls from protestors for a full ban.
Future disruptions expected
Protestors are gearing up to potentially disrupt Sir Keir Starmer's upcoming conference address, following past incidents like the Prime Minister being doused in glitter by a demonstrator last year. Stay tuned for more updates on the Labour conference.
