The vandalism of Labour MP Jo Stevens's office in Cardiff after she abstained from voting on the Gaza issue.

17 November 2023 · 23:36 UTC

The office was vandalized with red paint and posters accusing her of having "blood" on her hands.

This incident is considered intimidating and threatening. It comes in the context of a major rebellion within the Labour Party over the Israel-Gaza conflict, with 56 MPs voting for an immediate ceasefire.

The vandalism occurred during a protest event outside her office, and an investigation is underway. The issue of Gaza has caused divisions within the Labour Party, with some frontbenchers resigning from their positions in protest.
