Things seem to have moved after the Cabinet meeting this morning, but there are some pretty big caveats:
[The announcement] will stipulate the need for the release of all the hostages still held by Hamas and be based on a guarantee the terror group no longer rules Gaza, sources say.
Also made me wonder how Starmer’s conversation with Trump went yesterday. Not good?
I mean israel is only uk’s 44th trade partner accounting for only about 0.3% of total UK trade. The uk could impose sanctions on israel
Is direct trade that only issue that determines whether or not sanctions could be applied?
Surely there’s general politics bulshittery in the mix ?
Well I guess it’s about the degree of leverage that you have. Trading is… A big stick.
