Starmer to right of Italian far right on Israel as Meloni blocks all arms

Italy’s total block on arms exports to Israel shames ‘Labour’ government




Keir Starmer, Foreign Secretary David Lammy and the Starmer front bench are now to the right of Italian PM Giorgia Meloni and the fascist-adjacent Brothers of Italy party that she leads on Israel and it’s genocide in Gaza.

Meloni, who has spoken out before against Israel’s slaughter of Palestinian civilians, has announced her decision to ban all arms shipments to Israel.

Meanwhile, Labour made a token ban on a fraction of arms components that is designed to be bypassed because it still allows parts to be sent via other countries – and when challenged yesterday to say what action it will take to stop Israel bombing and burning innocent’s, a government minister Anneliese Dodds would only answer that the UK will keep monitoring the situation and Israel’s attacks.

Brothers of Italy is considered a descendant of Mussolini’s Italian fascists, but it is more interested in stopping mass murder than Starmer and his acolytes.
