A prominent member of the House of Lords criticized the government here on Thursday for hypocrisy and failure to reprimand Israel for its illegal occupation of Palestinian and indiscriminate attacks on Palestinians in the Gaza Strip and West Bank. 

Baroness Sayeeda Warsi denounced the government for claiming to uphold democracy and human rights across the world but failing to implement the two-state solution and peace process between Israel and Palestine that will end the illegal occupation and brutal attacks on Palestinians.

“We have a policy of a two-state solution, but we do not recognize Palestine as a state,” Warsi said in a speech to the House of Lords. “Ministers refuse even to use its name. We have a policy of a peace process, but no appetite to initiate or prioritize one. I saw then, at the heart of government, what we see now; our government failing to implement their own stated policy.”
