Stop UK arms trade to Israel
The UK approved sales of £7million worth of arms sales to Israel in the 6 months leading up to the onslaught on Gaza, and £4million worth of arms sales 4 months after the horrific offensive.

The 2014 Israel–Gaza war.
2,510 people killed, 550 being children, the majority of deaths being civilians (UN).
10,626 people wounded, 2,000 people left with permanent disabilities.
The sale of arms to Israel directly supports the illegal occupation of Palestinian land.
Every weapon sold to Israel is a weapon that has been, and will potentially be used to murder innocent civilians.
For this reason I urge the British government to completely stop all current and future arms sales to Israel.
