Sir Keir Starmer makes announcement in a video message but decision is mostly symbolic and will change little

Amid rising concerns over Israel’s war in Gaza, Britain is set to join other nations in formally recognising Palestinian statehood

It may carry profound symbolic weight, but the PM’s decision will not be enough to redress the historical imbalance

The recognition of a Palestinian state is one of the gravest errors in our nation’s foreign policy in decades

Keir Starmer will need to weigh up whether the timing of recognition of a Palestinian state is more important for the peace…

The Government insists that recognition is not just a symbolic move but it is hard to see it as anything else

Will the UK recognising the State of Palestine make any difference?
