Brits are now more likely to sympathise with Palestinians six months into the war.
David Cameron said the UK will not change its arms exports policy with Israel Six months into the war in Gaza, British public opinion on the conflict has swayed greatly – but Foreign Secretary Lord Cameron has said the UK will continue to export arms to Israel. A recent Israeli attack which killed seven aid workers – three Britons, a Palestinian, an Australian, a Pole and a dual US-Canadian citizen – stoked discontent with the ongoing war.
Brits are now more likely to sympathise with Palestinians – a 13% increase from the low sympathy percentage of 15% reported initially after October 7. But there is growing pressure on the government to suspend arms sales to Israel, with a letter signed by more than 600 lawyers, including former Supreme Court justices, warning it risks breaching international law.
