The UK is complicit as long as it allows trade with these illegal settlements and sends weapons to the Israeli military. A staggering 87% of Labour Party members want to ban trade with illegal settlements, and 78% want to suspend arms exports.

The government just announced that they will ban trade with illegal settlements. But they’re getting massive pushback and lobby groups are desperately trying to convince the government that these sanctions can’t stand.

We know the truth, and we have to speak up louder than the lobbyists. If enough of us send a message to our MP, we can give the Prime Minister the political backing he needs to finally stop enabling these atrocities and follow through on his announcement.

It will only take a few minutes! Remember to include your full name and address at the end of the email so they know you are a constituent. The more MPs that speak out against Palantir, the more powerful our campaign.

Personalised emails are much more effective but here are some talking points for you to use:

• Armed settlers and military raids are besieging Palestinian families, killing civilians—including young children—and forcing communities from their homes in the West Bank.
• The UK enables these actions by continuing trade with illegal settlements and exporting arms (such as F-35 components), despite overwhelming support from Labour Party members for trade bans (87%) and arms export suspensions (78%).
• The government just announced it will ban this trade - this is a major step forward but it needs to cover all goods and services, and it needs to be implemented. Lobbyists are already pushing back trying to get the government to abandon its plans.
• The Israeli government continues to pour hundreds of millions of dollars into expanding settlements in the West Bank, which are illegal under international law and dismantle Palestinian land and livelihoods.
• As your constituent I’d like you to demand Andy Burnham bans illegal settlement goods and all arms export to Israel now.
