Some thoughts, with @emilyjones.bsky.social & Romain Chuffart, in Critical Legal Thinking, on the UK's recognition of Palestine and the implications it might have had, but conspicuously has not had, for UK Govt responses to the Samud flotilla's seizure:

criticallegalthinking.com/2025/10/07/t...

The UK’s recognition of the State of Palestine is meaningless without the proper recognition of international law on the aid flotillas

Israel has boarded the Global Sumud flotilla, representing a further escalation of their response to flotillas seeking to deliver aid to Gaza. The

Taken by @ecusato.bsky.social/Sofia Tamburello's call to see the environment "not just as a ‘casualty’ of military conflict but (...) as ‘one of the means by which colonial racism is enacted, land is grabbed, siege lines fortified and violence perpetuated’" in Palestine.
