Matthew Wright hears from guests after the ICF said Israel’s presence in Palestinian territory is 'unlawful' and should be 'ended as rapidly as possible'.
First, Matthew and Human Rights Watch's Yasmine Ahmed discuss the future of UK-Israeli relations after this ruling.
Ahmed says: "The UK needs to be using every leverage that it has against Israel to stop this.
"This will make it harder for David Lammy and Keir Starmer not to do anything, and it makes it even more hollow in their words of a two-state solution, and a peaceful settlement of the dispute, if they do nothing now."
Matthew also speaks to former spokesman for NATO, Mark Laity, who doesn't expect to see much change 'immediately' following this. However, he predicts it will be much harder now to 'ignore the importance of a two-state solution'.
