Rishi Sunak may have more answers than most others - but he does not have all of them.
It is a moment for Rishi Sunak quite unlike any other he has had to face as prime minister. Every eyeball in the Commons was focused on his statement. He stood up and gave the grim roll call of British casualties and the missing since the Hamas raid on Israel over a week ago. He listed British military assets being redeployed to the Middle East. There was new humanitarian funding for the Palestinians to the tune of £10m.
But will this prove right in practice? He also said Britain had appealed to Israel to avoid civilian casualties, the day after his foreign secretary James Cleverly had talked about asking for 'restraint' and 'discipline'. But will this happen? Does Britain make a material difference in this debate? Nobody is sure, yet the questions from MPs kept coming.
