THOUSANDS will march to the doors of the Labour Conference on Saturday while ministers stand accused of criminal liability over the export of parts for F-35 warplanes used in Gaza.

Earlier this month, the British government finally admitted there was a “clear risk” of Israel seriously violating international law, but decided to suspend just 30 of 350 arms export licences to the country. 

The move was condemned as inadequate by campaigners, as it fails to encompass components for F-35 fighter jets, which have been used to drop 2,000lb bombs on innocent civilians.
