The SNP have just announced that they will continue to fund Israel's arms dealers here in Scotland.

Since 2022 Scottish Enterprise has given arms firms linked to Israel nearly £3 million. Tax payers money should not be given to those profiting from genocide.
NEW: Arms firms supplying Israel have continued to receive taxpayers’ money from the Scottish Government despite allegations of genocide in Gaza, prompting criticism its human rights due diligence is “not fit for purpose”. bit.ly/44iuWSr

Keir Starmer once called on his own party to control arms exports and put human rights at the heart of foreign policy.

Now he looks the other way and makes the UK complicit in genocide.

If he has any principles left he must stop arming and supporting Israeli forces.
