UK Suspends Trade Talks with Israel, Summons Ambassador Over Gaza Aid Blockade
- On Tuesday, the United Kingdom suspended free trade talks with Israel and sanctioned settler-related entities amid ongoing Gaza and West Bank conflicts.
- This decision followed nearly three months of Israeli blockade on Gaza, causing famine warnings and escalating international pressure on Israel to ease restrictions.
- British officials criticized Israel’s actions and the ongoing violence involving radical Israeli settlers, while Israel permitted only a limited number of aid trucks to enter Gaza on Monday.
- Foreign Secretary David Lammy emphasized that the Israeli government must take decisive steps to stop its hostile activities, while Prime Minister Starmer described the hardship faced by children in Gaza as completely unacceptable.
- These measures signal growing Western impatience with Israel's policies, suggesting further diplomatic and economic actions if the humanitarian blockade and violence persist.

The Independent just said Starmer's support for Israel's genocide is all Corbyn's fault
19 months into Israel’s genocide in Gaza, rising pressure has forced Keir Starmer’s government to take some small steps to hold the apartheid state to account. But in an apparent attempt to help Starmer save face for denying and participating in a genocide, the Independent has absurdly tried to blame this shameful behaviour on his predecessor Jeremy Corbyn. Political editor David Maddox, a former Daily Express writer, is no novice. But his artic…
Israel shows why trade sanctions never work
Trade sanctions don’t work. They hurt ordinary people in your country, the country you are targeting, and boost the regime you dislike. They are an exercise in performative legislation, intended to signal your disapproval of another government rather than to achieve any practical outcome. This is difficult to say because it risks sounding soft on Russia, China, or whoever. So let me use the most recent example: Israel. Last week, the European Un…
