The UK prime minister, Keir Starmer, confirmed he was ‘looking at’ sanctions against the extreme-right Israeli ministers Bezalel Smotrich and Itamar Ben-Gvir, who are serving in Benjamin Netanyahu’s cabinet.

Starmer’s response came after the Liberal democrat leader, Ed Davey, asked what actions the government would take after Smotrich said starving 2 million Palestinians in Gaza was ‘justified and moral’ and Ben-Gvir called Israeli settlers who killed Palestinians in the West Bank ‘heroes’. Starmer replied: ‘We are looking at that because they’re obviously abhorrent comments … along with other really concerning activity in the West Bank but also across the region’

UK is antisemitic
Ben Gvir is antisemitic

We should be looking into putting ICC cases against some of our politicians for being complicit.

Keep ‘looking’ we know you are complicit. The world has moved beyond the western hypocrisy as knows you are criminals. Nothing will change that
And many bribed politicians are still going on about "the horrific attack" against a small number of people partying on stolen land while the open air prison next door is being ethnic cleansed? What's the death toll at now? 45k? Imagine if the land thieves took that many casualties? The Israelis use underage girls to control western politicians and money, so there's a chance the leaders still supporting Israel are pedophiles
Lies this uk is full of it
When Bellends Collide…
What about Nethanyahu?
They r still looking….
Talking the talk never walking the walk.
What happen , the uk is going against the united states? Finally
Only mouth no action
'Looking at' ain't enough!
Starman should be looking at the world through the bars in BELMARSH
When are Horizon & the Post office in court Davey ???????
Shame on you allies of juice supremacy apartheid regime created by u for impostor from europe
If they were Russian saying it about Ukrainians they'd have been sanctioned in 5 minutes
Need an illuminated light over the skies of Cuba that can be seen from FLORIDA with messages been blocked by social media.
For so many years, Smotrich and Ben Gvir have been spewing genocidal and war crimes remarks, and yet the United States and UK didn't have the guts to impose sanctions.
Starmer is a war crimminal. So many Palestinians have been starved and killed on his watch!
Those racist chosen fakes must be sanctioned by all moral countries
Still looking????
Why youre sactions in cabinets , not only two men becouse they take orders for they governments
Karma will have u stamer
Another useless PM we have.
أَمْ حَسِبْتُمْ أَن تَدْخُلُوا الْجَنَّةَ وَلَمَّا يَأْتِكُم مَّثَلُ الَّذِينَ خَلَوْا مِن قَبْلِكُم ۖ مَّسَّتْهُمُ الْبَأْسَاءُ وَالضَّرَّاءُ وَزُلْزِلُوا حَتَّىٰ يَقُولَ الرَّسُولُ وَالَّذِينَ آمَنُوا مَعَهُ مَتَىٰ نَصْرُ اللَّهِ ۗ أَلَا إِنَّ نَصْرَ اللَّهِ قَرِيبٌ
izrael owns the british like dogs they can bark all day but will not change anything
Too little too late. The damage, the trauma is going to be there for generations to come
Don't just looking sir, just take action please!
Criticism of the Israeli government is not antisemitism. Condemning the only real democracy in the ME in favour of a racist, misogynistic and homophobic terrorist regime definitely is antisemitism.
"Sanctions and arrest warrants are for Africa and Putin, only" ~ ICC
Keep on looking and do nothing
The United Nations itself is a joke.. whilst the US at its discretion can simply veto any resolutions it essentially cannot get anything done.
Until Security council veto power is abolished it will continue to be redundant.
Masses forced into homelessness and starvation does demand action.
Maybe people don't have to sanctions each other again 🤔🙌⛑️🏛️
Thank you for this positive approach
what a surprise
STOP THE GENOCIDE!
