英国政府官员因为要求"a permanent ceasefire"和英国政府的要求"humanitarian pauses" but not a full ceasefire.相抵触,丢了工作,他自己也高兴,说可以畅所欲言
In his letter to the prime minister on Thursday, Mr Bristow, wrote: "My constituents and I are deeply grieved by the heart-breaking and devastating humanitarian crisis now unfolding in Gaza.
"Thousands have been killed and more than one million now displaced.
"It is difficult to understand how this makes Israel more secure or indeed makes anything better."
He added that some of his constituents had been directly affected by the conflict.
Posting the letter on Facebook, he wrote that ordinary Palestinians "should not suffer collective punishment for the crimes of Hamas".
Collective punishment is prohibited under international law.
