Zarah Sultana
Zarah Sultana is a British Labour Party politician who has served as the Member of Parliament (MP) for Coventry South since 2019. As a prominent advocate for social justice and human rights, she has been vocal in her criticism of government policies, particularly regarding the treatment of Palestinians and the UK's arms trade with Israel. Recently, she made headlines for calling out the UK government's arms exports to Israel, claiming they contradict official assertions of supplying only non-offensive materials amidst the ongoing conflict in Gaza. Her outspoken stance on these issues has led to internal party tensions, including the withdrawal of the party whip due to her votes against government benefit cuts.
