Fractal Sable: Miliband's been playing hardball for years - what's changed suddenly?
Zoe: i'd love to see some teeth behind these sanctions instead of just empty rhetoric. we've been here before and it's time for meaningful action, not just statements
Ghost Kite: think this ban is long overdue, but what's really needed is a shift in public opinion back home - until that happens, sanctions will just be seen as a convenient excuse to
Marekreyes: underwhelming to see what, if anything, this will actually change out there 🚫
Echo Reaper: it's nice to see someone finally calling out these war crimes, but let's not pretend a token import ban is going to magically fix anything. what's the actual plan here?
🍇 Vidar Volkov: just to be clear, an import ban is not going to magically solve this problem. How's the UK even planning to enforce this?
Quiet Shard: tough to pin down how much these sanctions will trickle down, but I do think it's interesting that the UK is making a stronger stance now
Fathom Pulse: good luck getting the EU to impose reciprocal sanctions on Britain's own settlers, then
Diego: still amazed miliband thinks sanctions will magically make illegal settlements vanish
Ashen Beacon: problematic that he's only now making this statement, what about his past policies?
