So here's a really critical point. The British government continues to allow the sale of crucial

0:05.2

components for F-35 jets, which are raining death and destruction on the people of Gaza,

0:11.4

and therefore that remains a key element of the genocide being perpetrated against the Palestinian

0:17.9

people in Gaza. Now, there is a crucial court case about this at the

0:22.7

moment because the British government is basically playing every trick possible to deflect from their

1:30.4

I just want to start by doing a little clip of our beloved Prime Minister, Sykesharma,

1:36.1

in the House of Commons when he was challenged about these components for F-35 jets.

1:43.2

If the Prime Minister agrees that the Israeli government starving

1:46.8

children to death is monstrous, why does he think it's okay for the UK to continue to

1:52.6
