Lord Wood of Anfield (Lab)

Speaking in the House of Lords on 9 September 2026

Debate

Israel and Palestine

Contribution

The noble Lord, Lord Hannay, knows much more about this than I do; I feel like I am in my introductory day at the Foreign Office, trying to work out difficult questions. He may have a point; it is an interesting point on the legality. De facto, Israel can prevent the operation of that consulate, which is why we are endeavouring to ensure that the consulate’s functions will be provided in another way.
