A petition calling for a public inquiry into Britain’s “complicity in Israel’s genocide in Gaza” has gathered more than 100,000 signatures. The petition posted on the UK Parliament website broke past the 100,000 signatures threshold on Monday. The number requires the parliament to consider the topic for debate. The initiative demands “an inquiry into any British involvement in Israeli operations in Gaza,” including “the sale, supply or use of weapons, surveillance aircraft and Royal Air Force bases”. The petition was launched by Jennifer Forbes, chair of the executive committee of Your Party, a left-wing party launched by former Labour Party leader Jeremy Corbyn – who serves as its parliamentary leader – and other left-wing figures in the UK.
