There Are Limits, You Know

With the prospects of a seat on the ministerial gravy train growing ever more distant, a few Conservatives have been moved to question the Government's continuing arms sales to the Righteous State. Thirty thousand dead Arabs may be all very moderate and sensible; but when it comes to using British weapons in assassinating members of the master race, and ex-forces members at that, it is at least potentially arguable that there may justifiably be room for a certain amount of consideration of the risk for the perception being sown that the just cause of Palestinian genocide may on occasion be distinguished more by zeal than by emotional intelligence. As to those Conservatives for whom a ministerial post looks more likely, Team Starmer is content to wait upon the Government's legal advice before interfering with market forces; and then only in the face of a breach of international law sufficiently serious to annoy the United States.
