Can the BBC stop framing Gaza as an issue that only Muslims care about?
We saw in the US that a lot of the core volunteers that go out knock doors simply don't bother when the party asking them to is unwilling or unable to sufficiently oppose a genocide.
UK politics is somewhat different as everything is so centralized and filtered through a Westminster media bubble but we'll see what happens if Labour can't win back the trust of its membership in a post-Starmer era and taking stronger positions on Gaza is part of that (even if the general public are fine with deprioritizing Gaza)
