I was asking the Foreign Secretary if she would commit to responding to two reports from the UN and the West Bank Protection Consortium.
Those reports laid bare the scale of sexual violence being perpetrated by Israeli settlers in the occupied West Bank.

Against this backdrop, how can the UK government continue with its piecemeal approach to sanctions which have delivered nothing so far?
Far bolder action is desperately required.
