Ms Or, whose grandfather moved from East London to Israel, said: “Why are you incentivising terrorists to keep my son forever?
“Can you look me in the eye and tell me that leaving my son trapped in a terror tunnel while rewarding Hamas is in line with British values?”
Sir Keir has pledged to recognise Palestine as a state in September, unless Israel agrees to a ceasefire in Gaza.
But the move has sparked fury from families of British hostages, who branded the PM’s plan a prize for terror and war crimes.
Avinatan, 32, was abducted from the Nova music festival on October 7 and has now been held for more than 670 days.
Yesterday, US vice-president JD Vance said: “We have no plans to recognise a Palestinian state.
“I don’t know what it would mean to really recognise a Palestinian state — given the lack of a functional government there.”
