UK Government Criticized for Hypocrisy Over High Seas Seizures and Gaza Flotilla Incident
By

Summary
The article criticizes the UK government (referred to as the "Starmer regime") for refusing to condemn Israel's illegal boarding of the Gaza Flotilla on the High Seas, and then reveals that the UK itself is planning similar illegal seizures of vessels. The author argues this undermines the UK's long-standing maritime policy of freedom of navigation, which is critical for an island nation dependent on food imports.

I did not realise it was because the UK was planning to undertake similar illegal seizure itself.
The Gaza Flotilla seizure was illegal: while for obvious reasons freedom of navigation had been the undisputed basis of UK maritime policy for centuries.
The UK is a set of islands whose population is dependent on food imports to stay alive.
