I have cancelled my Labour Party membership direct debit because I have waited in vain to hear Tony Blair condemn the latest activities of the Israelis under Ariel Sharon in the West Bank against Palestinian civilians, ignoring the Geneva Convention and human rights.

Mr Blair is generally too glib on most subjects but here we have one that really matters and his silence has shouted very loudly indeed.

I am ashamed to be associated with a party that has no sense of justice.

The prime minister should have spoken out by now and, for once, stopped being a yes-man to George W Bush.

He should ask his god for forgiveness.
