Motion text

That this House notes the report published by War on Want in July 2015 entitled Arming Apartheid: UK Complicity in Israel's Crimes Against the Palestinian People, which details the UK's arms trade with Israel; further notes that, despite promises given, UK-made weapons and military technologies continue to be sold to and subsequently used by occupying Israeli forces in Palestine, while the UK also imports Israeli military hardware and components and provides training in the UK for Israeli military personnel; and calls on the Government to apply its own export guidelines which would de facto result in a UK embargo on arms exports to Israel, which would lead to an end to any further breaches of international laws on arms control.
