However, MP War Crimes, a website that analyses politicians based on their position on Palestine and Israel, records Mahmood as “clearly anti-Palestinian” for abstaining from a number of key actions regarding Palestine.

In November 2023, the Scottish National party put forward an amendment to the King’s Speech calling for an immediate ceasefire in Gaza. While 56 Labour MPs defied the whip to vote in favour of the amendment, including 10 frontbenchers who stepped down so they could do so, Mahmood abstained from the vote.

In May 2024, Labour backbenchers Richard Burgon and Imran Hussain published a letter, signed by 105 MPs from across the political spectrum, calling on the government to back the International Criminal Court’s finding that Israel had committed “clear and obvious violations of international law in Gaza”. Mahmood was not one of the signatories.

In July, Mahmood abstained from a vote in parliament that resulted in the proscription of protest group Palestine Action.

In the weeks that followed, hundreds of supporters gathered in London to protest the ban. Approximately 1,600 people have been arrested for attending demonstrations on 9 August and 6 September.

While the arrests have been criticised by pro-Palestine groups, in one of her first moves as home secretary, Mahmood threw her support behind the Metropolitan police.
