British MPs have called on their government to declare Palestine an official country while “there is still a state to recognise”.
In strongly worded report the Foreign Affairs Committee has accused Whitehall of dithering by waiting for the “perfect time for recognition”. It said that was unachievable and that meanwhile illegal settlers were annexing much of the occupied West Bank, with Gaza in their sights too.
The call came as French President Emmanuel Macron announced that he would recognise Palestine at a meeting in New York in September, in a move that he has described as a "moral duty" and a "political necessity."
Mr Macron hopes that the UK will follow suit. Speaking to the House of Commons earlier this month, the French president said that "working together in order to recognise the dtate of Palestine and to initiate this political momentum is the only path to peace."
Despite the increasingly grim humanitarian crisis, with the death toll approaching 60,000, Israel was still refusing to listen to calls to bring about a ceasefire with Hamas.
“It seems that the Israeli government is not listening to the UK,” the Foreign Affairs Committee (Fac) stated, adding that while it did pay attention to Washington, “it only does so sporadically”.
The MPs will hope that Downing Street listens to their urging that, along with France, they take the significant step of recognising a Palestinian state, to put even greater pressure on Israel.
“The UK, along with France – the co-signatory of the 1916 Sykes-Picot Agreement – should now recognise the state of Palestine while there is still a state to recognise,” the MPs wrote. “An inalienable right should not be made conditional.”
That message appeared to have been picked up by Prime Minister Keir Starmer who suggested that a Hamas agreeing a ceasefire could rapidly lead to the UK recognising statehood that he repeated was the “inalienable right of the Palestinian people”.
“A ceasefire will put us on a path to the recognition of a Palestinian state and a two-state solution which guarantees peace and security for Palestinians and Israelis,” he said in a statement issued by Downing Street.
But the “unspeakable and indefensible” starvation in Gaza has led Britain to host an emergency call with the E3 partners, Britain, Germany and France, on Friday.
“While the situation has been grave for some time, it has reached new depths and continues to worsen,” he said. “We are witnessing a humanitarian catastrophe.”
The E3 meeting will discuss what the European countries can to “urgently stop the killing and get people the food”.
“We all agree on the pressing need for Israel to change course and allow the aid that is desperately needed to enter Gaza without delay,” he stated.
Whitehall sources have told The National that exasperation with Israel has led to serious consideration by the UK of Palestinian state recognition, but that has yet to be announced.
Further pressure has been put on Prime Minister Keir Starmer after London Mayor Sadiq joined a growing number of senior Labour figures demanding that the government “immediately recognise Palestinian statehood”, arguing that there “can be no two-state solution if there is no viable state left to call Palestine”.
While the government has said it “plans” to defy Israel and join the other 147 countries who have declared Palestine a state, it will only do so “at the point of maximum impact”. But the Fac report argued that the government “cannot continue to wait for the perfect time” because experience showed “that there will never be a perfect time, and in hindsight it is possible to see times when it should have occurred”.
However, the National Jewish Assembly, an organisation of British Jews, told the MPs that premature recognition of Palestinian statehood would be “a catastrophic error” which would legitimise “a leadership that has failed its people for decades”.
Emily Thornberry, the Fac chairwoman, said immediate recognition would “signal the UK’s desire to work urgently towards a two-state solution”. Her committee's report on the Israel-Palestine conflict urged Mr Starmer “to kick-start urgently the process of preparing the ground for negotiation of a long-term two-state resolution to the conflict, without waiting for a ceasefire”.
“There is undoubtedly huge frustration among many of the British public that the government has consistently acted too little, too late,” she said. “And there is huge frustration that the far-right government currently in charge in Israel is refusing to listen to its historic friends and allies.
“But we must not shrug our shoulders in despair and say that there is nothing we can do. This report puts forward practical suggestions for how the British government can make a real difference.”
She added that the UK government must also use its historic Middle East legacy as a convening power “to bring together conflicting and diverse parties” and “must act more boldly and bravely” to leverage Britain’s influence.

Teachers' pay - what you need to know
Pay varies significantly depending on the school, its rating and the curriculum. Here's a rough guide as of January 2021:
- top end schools tend to pay Dh16,000-17,000 a month - plus a monthly housing allowance of up to Dh6,000. These tend to be British curriculum schools rated 'outstanding' or 'very good', followed by American schools
- average salary across curriculums and skill levels is about Dh10,000, recruiters say
- it is becoming more common for schools to provide accommodation, sometimes in an apartment block with other teachers, rather than hand teachers a cash housing allowance
- some strong performing schools have cut back on salaries since the pandemic began, sometimes offering Dh16,000 including the housing allowance, which reflects the slump in rental costs, and sheer demand for jobs
- maths and science teachers are most in demand and some schools will pay up to Dh3,000 more than other teachers in recognition of their technical skills
- at the other end of the market, teachers in some Indian schools, where fees are lower and competition among applicants is intense, can be paid as low as Dh3,000 per month
- in Indian schools, it has also become common for teachers to share residential accommodation, living in a block with colleagues

Farage on Muslim Brotherhood
Nigel Farage told Reform's annual conference that the party will proscribe the Muslim Brotherhood if he becomes Prime Minister.
"We will stop dangerous organisations with links to terrorism operating in our country," he said. "Quite why we've been so gutless about this – both Labour and Conservative – I don't know.
“All across the Middle East, countries have banned and proscribed the Muslim Brotherhood as a dangerous organisation. We will do the very same.”
It is 10 years since a ground-breaking report into the Muslim Brotherhood by Sir John Jenkins.
Among the former diplomat's findings was an assessment that “the use of extreme violence in the pursuit of the perfect Islamic society” has “never been institutionally disowned” by the movement.
The prime minister at the time, David Cameron, who commissioned the report, said membership or association with the Muslim Brotherhood was a "possible indicator of extremism" but it would not be banned.

Three trading apps to try
Sharad Nair recommends three investment apps for UAE residents:
- For beginners or people who want to start investing with limited capital, Mr Nair suggests eToro. “The low fees and low minimum balance requirements make the platform more accessible,” he says. “The user interface is straightforward to understand and operate, while its social element may help ease beginners into the idea of investing money by looking to a virtual community.”
- If you’re an experienced investor, and have $10,000 or more to invest, consider Saxo Bank. “Saxo Bank offers a more comprehensive trading platform with advanced features and insight for more experienced users. It offers a more personalised approach to opening and operating an account on their platform,” he says.
- Finally, StashAway could work for those who want a hands-off approach to their investing. “It removes one of the biggest challenges for novice traders: picking the securities in their portfolio,” Mr Nair says. “A goal-based approach or view towards investing can help motivate residents who may usually shy away from investment platforms.”
