More than 200,000 join Amsterdam march against Gaza genocide

A petition demanding a public inquiry into the UK's alleged complicity in Israel's Gaza genocide has garnered over 100,000 signatures, meeting the necessary threshold for parliamentary debate. The petition, launched by Your Party chair Jenn Forbes, calls for an independent inquiry to question British officials and ministers regarding weapons supplied to Israel, intelligence gathered on Gaza, legal advice received, and decisions made.

Jeremy Corbyn, parliamentary leader of Your Party, emphasizes the need for the truth and justice for the Palestinian people. The inquiry would specifically probe the extent of Britain's involvement in Israeli war crimes in Gaza, including the alleged provision of weapons, intelligence sharing, and legal advice. Corbyn, who co-chaired a tribunal in late 2025, asserts that Britain has failed in its duty to prevent genocide and has been both complicit and, in some cases, an active participant in war crimes.

The tribunal found that Britain is not only failing to prevent genocide but in some instances actively committing atrocity crimes. Corbyn maintains that if the government had nothing to hide, it would not prevent efforts to expose the truth. Relations between the UK and Israel have soured in recent months due to the UK's sanctions on Israeli settlements and the suspension of cooperation under the 2030 roadmap for bilateral relations.
