As scores of injured children from Gaza arrive in the UK for NHS treatment, the British government is quick to showcase its humanitarian credentials. But beneath the photo ops and press releases lies a damning truth: Britain is treating the symptoms of a genocide it refuses to confront or condemn.
These children—burned, maimed, orphaned—are not victims of natural disaster. They are casualties of a military campaign led by Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, whose actions have been condemned by international legal experts as war crimes. Yet Keir Starmer, a former human rights lawyer, has remained shamefully silent. Worse—he has actively shielded Netanyahu from accountability.

Starmer’s refusal to call on Natanyahu to end the bloodshed, his purging of pro-Palestinian voices from Labour ranks, and his parroting of Israeli talking points mark him not just as a coward, but as a collaborator. In legal and moral terms, enabling a war criminal is complicity. Starmer’s silence endorses the on-going Genocide.
The UK, a nation with diplomatic weight and historical ties to the region, could have used its influence to halt the slaughter and end the Israeli imposed famine. Instead, it chose optics over action. Flying in wounded children for treatment may soothe the conscience of Westminster, but it does nothing to stop the bombs, the blockades, or the burial of entire families under rubble.
This is not humanitarianism. It is damage control, which places more pressure on an lready strained tax-payer-funded NHS on the brink of collapse.
And the media? With few exceptions, it has played its part—downplaying civilian death tolls, amplifying Israeli narratives, and vilifying those who dare to speak out. The BBC’s coverage has been so skewed, it now faces mounting accusations of institutional bias and complicity in genocide denial.

Britain cannot claim moral leadership while it funds, arms, and defends the architects of mass suffering and ethnic cleansing. The children arriving for NHS care deserve more than treatment—they deserve justice. And justice begins with truth, accountability, and the courage to name genocide when we see it.
Keir Starmer continues to fail woefully not just at home but also for the people of Gaza
