Israel not listening to UK, cross-party group warns
Burton Mail
|July 25, 2025
ISRAEL is not listening to the UK and ministers should “immediately” recognise the state of Palestine, a cross-party committee of MPs has said.
-
The UK’s actions over the ongoing conflict and “in the years preceding, have often been too little, too late,” the Foreign Affairs Committee has said, as they called for further sanctions “against settlers”.
The Prime Minister is facing increasing pressure to fulfil Labour's promise to recognise Palestine as the conflict in Gaza continues.
Mayor of London Sir Sadiq Khan is among those who have called for the move.
A “majority” of MPs on the committee have also backed it, according to the chairwoman, Dame Emily Thornberry.
