Keir Starmer’s government, true to its deeply shady form, has filled the Department for Education (DfE) with people close to both corporate and pro-Israel lobbyists. And the overlapping right-wing network flows from old Blairites like Peter Mandelson and Jim Murphy to the more recent Starmerites at Labour Together. Electoral Commission statistics show us just how much influence dodgy lobbyists have in the DfE today. The rot of Blair, Mandelson, Murphy, and Labour Together New Labour corporate cronies — from Tony Blair to Mandelson and Murphy — just refuse to go away. But it’s the shadowy lobbying and fundraising networks around them…

Motion 52 will call for academic freedom against “Zionist repression” and the “dangers posed by Zionist groups”. No one sensible who has been paying attention could possibly object, which of course means UK Lawyers for Israel (UKLFI) is very offended indeed. So much so that it has resorted to its…

A petition demanding a public inquiry into pro-Israel influence on UK politics and democracy will be debated in Parliament on 22 June 2026, according to an update published on the Petitions Committee’s page on 21 May 2026.

Petition debates cannot change the law or force a vote, but they can raise awareness and put…
