Prime Minister Keir Starmer said on Tuesday Britain was prepared to recognise a Palestinian state in September at the United Nations General Assembly unless Israel takes a number of steps to improve life for Palestinians.

It may be symbolic, and it may never happen, but this seems like something of a victory for the people campaigning on behalf of Palestinians, whom the UK Government classifies as terrorists. In fact, Keir Starmer may now have to classify himself as a terrorist.
