20. Notice of Motion proposed by Councillor Peacock, seconded by Councillor Bateson
      This council condemns all attacks and suffering inflicted against civilians in the Middle East. We recognise that
      there is no justification for the killing of civilians or the taking of civilian hostages who must be urgently released.
      All acts of violence must end immediately.  I propose that this council condemns the killing that has taken place
      on all sides, and that we call for a full and immediate ceasefires, the opening of a humanitarian corridor into Gaza;
      and, full adherence to international humanitarian and human rights law; an international intervention with leadership
      brought to bear in securing dialogue, a lasting peace, and a long-term solution that ends this crisis.
