Letter to my MP, following the revelations by Alicia Kearns regarding Legal Advice from Foreign Office Lawyers.

I have always opposed militarism, and have been part of the protest movements that challenged the many wars prosecuted by the UK Governments of the past 25 years.

I sent this and other letters via www.writetothem.com 

Dear Representative,

It has been revealed by Alicia Stearns, Commons Foreign Affairs Committee via an audio clip from a meeting with Conservatives in London last week. that the foreign office Lawyers have advised that Israel is in breach of International Law, Humanitarian Law and other Laws.

Francesca Albanese, the United Nations Special Rapporteur on the Occupied Palestinian Territories, has confirmed that 4 of the 5 conditions of the Genocide Convention have been met in Gaza and The West Bank.

These all indicates that Lord Cameron and prime minister Rishi Sunak must understand that the legal situation as defined above means the UK has to cease all arms sales to Israel without delay. 

Legal experts said that not to do so would risk putting the UK in breach of international law itself, as it would be seen as aiding and abetting war crimes by a country it was exporting arms to.

I urge you to go to the House of Commons and speak up for me, as you represent me, your constituent, to demand that the UK Parliament, the UK Government in whole acts now to uphold international law, without fear or favour, to prevent Israel from further military action, blockades, occupation and other forms of oppression of the Palestinian people, and that the Israeli State and indeed, the Hamas Military wing, be held accountable for all their criminal actions, in this 'war', unconditionally.

I urge you to represent this to Sir Keir Starmer as Leader and to the front bench of the Labour Parliamentary Party.

To fail to do so will be seen and understood as being complicit in the commission of those crimes.

Yours sincerely,

Kindest regards

Corneilius
