THE UK Government’s trade envoy to Israel has visited the country to “promote trade”, just days after Labour said they were calling off negotiations with the Israeli government on a new free trade deal.

Lord Ian Austin was pictured in Haifa in northern Israel visiting various projects, where he said the Government would continue to “[encourage] British businesses to export to Israel and Israeli businesses to invest in the UK”.

On Monday, the British embassy in Israel shared an image of Austin and wrote: “Great to welcome @LordIanAustin to Haifa!

“In a day full of innovation by the Carmel, the UK Trade Envoy to Israel visited the cutting-edge Customs Scanning Centre, Haifa Bayport, the Haifa–Nazareth Light Rail project, and the Technion – witnessing [Great Britain flag emoji, Israel flag emoji] cooperation at every stop.”

Last week, the UK Government called off trade negotiations with Israel, describing Israeli prime minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s government as “extremists”.

Experiencing issues with this image not appearing. I suspect because it's so critical of Zionist Keir Starmer's support of and complicity in Israel's genocides.
Genocide denier and Current UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer is quoted that he supports Zionism without qualification.
