Perhaps the most predictable famine in history, with Israeli ministers like @yoavgallant openly discussing the restriction of food to Palestinians in Gaza since Oct. 2023.
There can be no excuse for the international community’s hand-wringing now that it's too late to prevent.

UK military aid, arms, intelligence and decisions by government ministers have enabled Israel’s genocide in Gaza.
That’s why I’m proud to co-sponsor @jeremycorbyn’s bill for a full, independent public inquiry, like the one for the Iraq War. Truth matters. So does accountability.
Last month I visited the West Bank and saw state-backed settler violence at every turn. This collaboration is the beating heart of the settler-colonial, apartheid system.

It will do neither Orbán nor the Hungarian people any good for the country to isolate itself by recklessly pulling out of the ICC.
The UK must be unequivocal: individuals charged with war crimes must be arrested the moment they set foot on British soil, including Netanyahu.

Read my latest piece in @MiddleEastMnt on the absurdity of Trump's policies on Palestine. Amidst all his vague ramblings, the one key detail is this:
Nothing is too extreme to be ruled out.

Trump is ‘saying the quiet bit out loud’. We all know the US’s longstanding role in undermining the self-determination of the Palestinian people, but never has it so directly, so brazenly, been articulated.
Any country that wishes to be taking seriously on intl law must condemn.
First Gantz, then Halevi, now Basyuk - why does the UK keep allowing this?
Whether its the exception or the rule, this diplomatic cosiness undermines the UK’s global position by associating so closely with a pariah state and it makes a mockery of commitment to international law.

Israel has not showed any sign of ending its genocidal campaign- if politicians keep dithering, there simply won't be a Palestinian state left to recognise.
Unilateral, immediate recognition of Palestine is the only route forward. MPs must support @ShockatAdam's bill.

As long as the UK continues to allow arms exports to continue to Israel, this is the line we are likely to hear. It's political common sense: Starmer isn’t about to implicate his own government by acknowledging that the State it supports, Israel, is committing a genocide.

At yesterday's parliamentary roundtable, ICJP Director @tayab_ali_ spoke of MPs' duty to act, saying:
"Instead of any meaningful measures, some of our politicians remain steadfast in making empty slogans and calling for ceasefire in the most meaningless and insulting ways."

📺ICJP Senior Public Affairs Officer @JWTPurcell spoke to @anadoluagency about the need for an immediate and total arms embargo on Israel.
With only 8.6% of licenses suspended and F-35 contracts untouched, we are far away from ending British complicity in Israeli war crimes.

The government has finally admitted there is a 'clear risk' that 'some' UK arms could be violating international law.
That's putting it lightly. Why has it taken so long when the bar was so low? It is clear as day that Israel is violating international law - we need a total ban.
