UK MP Confronted Over Gaza: Silence Amidst Accusations of Arms Complicity

Tottenham Confrontation: Activists Question Lammy on UK's Role in Gaza Conflict A video circulating online shows a tense encounter between activists and David Lammy, Member of Parliament for Tottenham, on May 30, 2025. The activists, from Haringey Palaction and Pymbritain, confronted Lammy in Tottenham, directly accusing the UK government of complicity in the ongoing conflict in Gaza. Their central claim is that UK-produced F35 fighter jet parts are being used in the bombing of Palestinian civilians. "Will you stop arming Israel? F35 fighter jet parts produced in the UK are being used to bomb Palestinians," one activist is heard saying in the video. "Over a hundred thousand people in Gaza have died. Will you answer?" The video shows Lammy walking away without responding to the direct accusations. The incident has sparked considerable online debate and raises serious questions about the UK government's arms sales policy and its potential role in the humanitarian crisis in Gaza. The high death toll reported by the activists further underscores the gravity of the situation and the urgency for accountability. The UK government has yet to release an official statement in response to the accusations made in the video.
