UK to announce new sanctions on Israel tomorrow
i24NEWS ^ | September 7, 2026

Posted on 09/07/2026 6:56:05 PM PDT by MinorityRepublican

UK Prime Minister Andy Burnham is expected to announce a trade ban on Israeli settlements tomorrow, an official familiar with the matter confirmed to i24NEWS.

Foreign Minister Ed Miliband will announce them tomorrow morning following a cabinet meeting.

Following the announcement, Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich reacted by calling for the immediate expulsion of the British ambassador and denouncing the British government as antisemitic.

National Security Minister Itamar Ben-Gvir called for Israel to recognize the Falkland Islands as Argentine in response to the announcement. He said the islands were 'illegally occupied' by Britain and that Israel should sanction the UK until it halts all oil production around the islands

The Times reported that Burnham told President Trump about the proposed ban in a phone call on Monday. No 10 said the prime minister had stressed the importance of the two-state solution.

The Trump administration is expected to make a statement attacking the decision.

The sanctions appear to have been fast-tracked by the government, as Miliband announced on September 1 that new sanctions would be announced in the coming weeks.

What do you do when your country has been overrun by Muslims?

Ban trade with the Jewish state of Israel, of course.

Churchill was wrong. Fascism was not defeated in the Battle of Britain.

I ran Burnham‘s announcement through my Jonny Quest decoder ring.
Here’s what came out:

“British Muslims, like me! Love me!”

I suppose that message will have its intended effect. His throat will be among the last slit.

Don’t forget Canada. They are becoming an actual enemy.

Churchill was right about the invaders though:
“but the influence of the religion paralyses the social development of those who follow it. No stronger retrograde force exists in the world. Far from being moribund, Mohammedanism is a militant and proselytizing faith. It has already spread throughout Central Africa, raising fearless warriors at every step; and were it not that Christianity is sheltered in the strong arms of science, the science against which it had vainly struggled, the civilisation of modern Europe might fall, as fell the civilisation of ancient Rome.”
Modern Europe and the UK are about to fall.
Where are the warriors?
They need to squelch their marxist leaders.

The Brits may not remember but they had a lot to do with the Jewish people returning to Israel. Seems the turncoats would honor their commitments.

It’s rich that Britain, with a lengthy history of colonialism, is upset that Israel is expanding settlements in the West Bank. To the victor goes the spoils.

The “israeli settlements” probably account for .003% of the UK’s trade. So brave.

Funny though, how the tuckerrhoids and Candacestinians here are aligned with the bolsheviks in the labour gov’t and the jihadis

“The “israeli settlements” probably account for .003% of the UK’s trade. So brave. “

It’s more performative than practical. It’s “See, I’m doing the right thing”.

Israel could stop the invasion of the illegals into Britain with one small step.

Annex the English Channel into the State of Israel. It would become a No-Go Zone for all of Europe.

This will be a mistake. Israel is all over their systems. The UK traditionally receives technology, cybersecurity collaboration, defense cooperation, and traded goods from Israel. You don’t defecate where you eat.
