Leaked Israeli documents reveal how Benjamin Netanyahu's government waged a secret campaign to stop boycotts of Israel in Britain. That included a "sensitive" meeting with Michael Gove -- when he was justice secretary in 2015 -- about countering the Boycott, Divestment, Sanctions movement. Israel’s lobbying campaign was led by its justice minister Ayelet Shaked, who met Gove in London in November 2015. Shaked, from the far-right Jewish Home party, was alarmed by a European Commission plan to label goods produced on illegally occupied Palestinian land as originating from an “Israeli settlement”. The issue was consequently high on Shaked’s agenda, with the Israeli government fearing that the labels would help pro-Palestine boycott campaigns. Gove “enjoyed” meeting Shaked and specifically requested “more information” from the Israeli embassy on the labelling issue, the leaked emails show. Israel’s foreign ministry then arranged for an analysis to be prepared for Gove “as soon as possible” on the imminent EU measures. “I am aware of the workload, but there is an unusual window of opportunity here”, noted one Israeli official, apparently referring to Gove’s openness to guidance. declassifieduk.org/israels-s…

Reform UK deputy leader Richard Tice went on a trip to “the Gaza front line” in September 2025 funded by Reform Friends of Israel, where he concluded that the Gaza famine was a “blatant lie”. A few weeks after Tice’s visit, his chief of staff and other Reform figures undertook another trip which included a visit to the illegally occupied Golan Heights, which the UK recognises as part of Syria. They also visited Israel’s police headquarters, which is overseen by far-right national security minister Itamar Ben-Gvir, who is sanctioned by the UK for “repeated incitement of violence against Palestinian civilians”. This trip was funded by the Israeli Ministry of Foreign Affairs, according to newly released Israeli government data seen by Declassified and found by Berlin-based journalist Yossi Bartel. declassifieduk.org/israel-sp…

70 years ago today the UK secretly connived with Israel and France to invade Egypt at Suez. They lied to the British and world public about this collaboration before being humiliated by Egypt and the US into a withdrawal. But this wasn't the end of the British empire in the Middle East, as some mainstream figures claim. The following year Britain invaded Oman and planned coups in Syria. It continued to prop up nasty Gulf monarchs, and does so to this day. Britain has since the 1980s been happy to collaborate closely with repressive regimes in Egypt itself, from Hosni Mubarak to, presently, Abdel Fattah al-Sisi.
