Responding to Addison's question, she said: "I condemn Israel using the excuse."

Addison leapt in to ask Aily twice more whether she would condemn Hamas.

The activist replied: "I don't think that needs to be the first question that's being asked ... it's been 30 days of Israel using the excuse of this attack."

Following a lengthy exchange, Aily eventually said: "Of course, I condemn the attack."

The protester then decided to walk away from the interview but returned seconds later to heckle as Addison continued his report.

Addison went on to reveal some pro-Palestine protesters were willing to condemn the proscribed terror organisation.

• 'Sunak is weak and gutless. Even Blair would have banned antisemitic marches'
  
• Man who glitter-bombed Starmer at the Labour conference joins forces Armistice Day protesters

Hamas claimed responsibility for killing 1,200 Israelis and taking another 200 hostage.

However, some pro-Palestinian figures have struggled to slam Hamas for its attack on October 7.

Former Labour leader Jeremy Corbyn refused to condemn Hamas after being asked a dozen times.

Two students appeared dumb-founded last week when asked about their initial thoughts following Hamas attack.

One asked: "I don't believe they did, did they?"

The second added: "Honestly I think I need to be a bit more clued up on everything that's going on.

"So I feel like I'm not really qualified to answer that too well."

Pro-Palestine protesters have gathered outside of the Houses of Parliament while MPs prepare to vote on tonight's ceasefire amendment.

Around 50 Labour MPs could defy Sir Keir Starmer's orders to vote for the Scottish National Party's amendment calling for an immediate ceasefire.

More than a dozen members of the Shadow Frontbench could find themselves in hot water if they break with Starmer's three-line whip.

A Labour Party spokesperson yesterday said: "We're not going to be engaging with the party political game playing by the SNP in parliament."

They added today: "This is a whipped vote and every MP knows what the consequence of that means."

The SNP last week tabled an amendment to the King's Speech calling for an immediate ceasefire in the war.

Commons Speaker Lindsay Hoyle selected the vote which will take place at around 7pm.
