When international law collapses, so do our rights.
From Gaza to Westminster, the rules that once restrained power are being rewritten or ignored.
In my latest piece, I explore how Britain, once an architect of the post-war order, is now complicit in its erosion.

From Israel’s genocide in Gaza, to Trump, and now Britain’s PM, a former human rights lawyer trying, to undermine these protections.

The state of British media is telling: more outrage over a protest group and an ill-advised chant at a music festival than over the killing of tens of thousands in Gaza.
Genocide is unfolding, but the real scandal, apparently, is those who are shouting too loudly about it.

STATEMENT: MCB Slams Muted Silence on Genocide While Outrage Mounts Over Protest
By ignoring the concerns raised by UN experts, the government is choosing to silence protestors rather than address the root causes of the genocide being carried out by Israeli forces.

Child Sexual Exploitation is a vile crime and those perpetrators must be punished.
We welcome the Prime Minister’s Announcement of a statutory inquiry into Child Sexual Exploitation - and stand firmly with the victims of these abhorrent crimes.
Exploiting these horrific crimes to push bigotry derails real justice.

With Israel's actions, we are witnessing the collapse of the rules-based order and international law. This flies in the face of everything Britain claims to stand for. What we’re seeing sends a clear message to every dictator: act as you wish, there will be no consequences.
The Muslim Council of Britain condemns in the strongest possible terms Israel’s latest military strikes on Tehran, which have seen residential areas engulfed in flames.
It is time for Britain to stop turning a blind eye.

Whilst these sanctions are welcome, more needs to be done to hold those responsible for atrocities in Gaza to account.
🚨 MCB Statement
The MCB welcomes the UK travel ban and asset freeze of far-right Israeli ministers Itamar Ben-Gvir and Bezalel Smotrich - but after over 55,000 Palestinian deaths, it isn’t enough. We continue to push for further action.
