    Both Sunak and Starmer are self proclaimed zionists, given that one of them is almost certainly going to become the new prime minister, how is it not?

      Yes. Because they’re politicians who will have to maintain some kind of rapport or dialogue with Israel. Especially after Britain was so formative in the creation of Israel via Lord Balfour.

      But it’s a huge jump to say that Zionists control Britain and/or the political class. Affinity for Israel, or deference to Israel would be more accurate

        Zionists control the British political class. Your flailing around for excuses and weak rationalisations is sad at best and simple anti-semitism at worst.

            You were given several explanations, you ignored them all. Please don’t conflate Zionism with Judaism.
