Foreign secretary David Lammy announced on Monday some arms sales to Israel were being suspended
Defence secretary rejects Boris Johnson’s claim suspension of some arms sales means UK ‘abandoning Israel’Good morning. The Hamas massacre of Israelis on 7 October last year, and Israel’s brutal war in Gaza that has been going on ever since, has had very little impact on the internal politics of the Conservative party, but it has caused endless problems for Labour.
The UK’s Chief Rabbi, Sir Ephraim Mirvi, has said the announcement “feeds the falsehood that Israel is in breach of international humanitarian law” and said the timing of the move “beggars belief”.
Healey said the suspension of some arms sales “will not have a material impact on Israel’s security”.The six Tory leadership candidates – Tugendhat, Kemi Badenoch, Robert Jenrick, James Cleverly, Priti Patel and Mel Stride – address Tory MPs on after another in a private hustings meeting at Westminster.
