British independent MP John McDonnell called for the expulsion of the Zionist entity’s ambassador to London, Tzipi Hotovely.
This came in a speech he gave at a parliamentary session on Wednesday, during which Hamish Falconer, Minister of State for the Middle East, North Africa, Afghanistan and Pakistan at the British Foreign Office, was hosted.
McDonnell said that they saw pictures of children dying of hunger and cold due to the Zionist attacks and the siege on Gaza.
He pointed out that the steps taken by the British government did not have the desired effect on “Israel”. He stressed that the only solution in the past was “to isolate a country economically and militarily completely” to prevent it from committing war crimes, as “Israel” does.
McDonnell pointed out that the British government could play a leading role in reaching some kind of negotiated solution by isolating “Israel”.
He added: “But what particularly bothers me is that we have a Zionist ambassador (Hotovely) who defends Greater Israel and refuses to recognize the State of Palestine, and opposes all approved UN resolutions on how to achieve peace and security, and she is still in our country.. Why don’t we expel the Israeli ambassador?” For his part, Minister Falconer explained in response to a parliamentary question that he shares MP McDonnell’s sadness over the images coming from Gaza during the winter.
Falconer said: “It is clear that there is a disagreement between the British and Zionist governments about the course of the war in Gaza and the resulting humanitarian consequences.” He added: “We will continue to raise this disagreement through all channels, whether through the Zionist ambassador or directly to the Zionist occupation government, and talk to her about these issues, it is really the only way to achieve the changes we want to see in this regard.”
MP Zara Sultana also supported her colleague McDonnell’s call, in a post on her account on the “X” platform, saying: “Expel the Israeli ambassador now.”
