Struggling to work out why Jenrick would single out these three Commonwealth countries rather than, say, Canada, Australia and New Zealand, whose citizens have exactly the same rights. It’s a head-scratcher.
Ben Gvir posts material like this because it appeals to Israeli voters. This is, literally, a campaign ad. He posted it with a caption in Hebrew that translates to “We promised - we delivered!”
Nathan Tankus@nathantankus.bsky.social · 3w agoBen Gvir posted this video on twitter today which shows fat and happy Palestinians on a conveyer built going through the Israeli "prison" (torture camp) system and coming out emaciated and maudlin. This is textbook genocidal content.
