    We can’t do anything about it

    The UK, France, Germany, and the US can do a lot more than veto and abstain UN resolutions calling for a ceasefire and peace negotiations in the area. A lot more.

    Nobody pretends this will be easy or quick but if the UK wants to be seen as a relevant player on the international stage it needs to tackle difficult world geopolitical issues like this.

    And the same goes for domestic party politics, Labour and the Conservatives can do a lot more than the weasel words they’ve released in press statements so far. A lot more.
