## Resource

Wes Streeting, former health secretary, blasts UK government for sluggish action on Gaza, calling its response morally inadequate and comparing Israel to a “rogue state” deserving sanctions. He regrets the delay in recognizing Palestine alongside France, calling it a missed opportunity, while insisting his stance was always balanced—supporting Israel’s right to defend itself and Palestinians’ right to statehood. His comments, emerging from the Mandelson files, have drawn sharp criticism from Lord Mandelson, who dismissed Streeting’s intervention as “pathetic” and indicative of an “early mid-life crisis.” Streeting, however, stands by his position, proud of the eventual Palestinian state recognition but deeply frustrated by the pace of political action and the dismissal of his concerns.
