Benjamin Netanyahu’s government waged a secret campaign to stop Britain boycotting trade with Israel.
Leaked files show Israeli officials held a high-level “sensitive” meeting about the issue with Conservative politician Michael Gove when he was justice secretary in 2015.
The discussion focussed on how to combat the Boycott, Divestment, Sanctions (BDS) movement, which targets products made on illegally occupied Palestinian land.

Random, but I'll give it a go.
I have a Leica MP I'm looking to sell. I just don't use it any more, and we could really use a holiday! So I sell this and we fly to Thailand, thank-you-yes. 🇹🇭
I'm in #Canberra, Australia. Something local would be _vastly_ preferred.
Looking for around AU$6,000. But open to negotiate. Happy to Zoom with anyone interested.
Boosts appreciated.
The Palestinian Centre for Development and Media Freedoms (MADA) recorded 148 violations against the Palestinian media in September, including seven Palestinian violations and one violation by social media sites.
This was an increase of 41% over the number of violations in August.
MADA explained that the increase last month was due mainly to the fierce attack launched by the occupation forces against Palestinians in the occupied West Bank.
