    Lip service. With no actual sanctions on the state itself or ceasing to send weapons and components, then it’ll be more useless than the paper it’s written on.

          Pass sanctions, threaten allies and prevent fuel and all other goods from entering the country. Blockade Israel.

          Yes. But if they can’t do that, at least not yet for political reasons, they shouldn’t do anything?

        When there’s a case of genocide being investigated, the UK would like to say that they did all they can to prevent it. All while the beat and outlaw protests against the genocide.

        It’s OK to call out the hypocrisy.

        Or do you want me to clap for them like a trained monkey and say “what a great step in the right direction”?
