UK’s formal military collaboration with Israel continued throughout Gaza genocide
A parliamentary question by a Muslim Labour MP has revealed UK military collaboration with the Israeli occupation forces (IOF) continued unbroken through genocide and numerous illegal attacks.
Apsana Begum asked Starmer’s ministry of defence:
whether the agreement signed in December 2020 by the Chief of the Defence Staff and his Israeli counterpart formalising military collaboration between the UK and Israel remains in place; and whether it has been (a) reviewed, (b) modified and (c) amended.
The curt answer was provided by Israel-supporting defence minister Luke Pollard, who confirmed that military agreement with Israel has been in place unamended:
The UK-Israel military cooperation agreement, which was signed in December 2020, remains extant.
A litany of shame
Since the beginning of Israel’s genocide in Gaza in October 2023, the IOF has slaughtered hundreds of thousands of civilians in Gaza and is starving more than a million. It has committed murder, ethnic cleansing and hundreds of abductions in the occupied West Bank. It has committed terrorist attacks in Lebanon and Qatar, murdered thousands in Lebanon, Iran, and Syria and illegally invaded and ethnically cleansed large areas of Lebanon and Syria.
And Pollard’s brusque ‘extant’ is masking the real extent of the UK’s extensive, direct collaboration in Israel’s crimes. It has provided aerial surveillance during the murder of aid workers – including British citizens – along with tens of thousands of children, hundreds of journalists and thousands of medics and rescue workers.
The Starmer government is a genocide regime providing direct military support as well as legislative and political cover to the terror colony. All confirmed in a ministerial response – as if more confirmation were needed.

No more than I would expect from starmer. He has been a disgrace as the Labour leader right from the the start and he SHOULD have been expelled from the party at conference last year as he is ACTIVELY supporting Israeli TERRORISM. THe fact that he sucked up to trumpty dumpty, not just once but twice, makes him unfit to be P.M. or leader or the Labour whose reputation has been seriously damaged by his leadership – GET RID OF HIM NOW – EXPEL the scumbag !
Starmer is clinging onto power until hes booted out. He has always been intertwined with Israel, allowing war criminal Isaav Herzog to visit the UK; allowing a zionist settlers conference trying to sell land ( which is not the there’s).in the West Bank. Not taking any action against the 2000 British Israelis that joined the IDF to fight in the genocide. Ensuring military cooperation despite appearing to not allow use of UK bases ( pat on back) …except for defensive purposes, ok so define defensive, refuelling, before flying off to Gaza or Lebanon is not defensive. Trouble is, Starmer is so sly and sneaky, he will say one thing and do the opposite. No wonder nobody trusts him. His only plan is to grab and maintain power for as long as he can, even if it mean creating wars, or the potential for war aka Russia.
He has got to go!!
Never ever forget the first 6 words starmer uttered on being elected leader of the labour party.
” I. Am. A. Zionist. Without. Qualification”
Nuff said
