Senior Tory launches scathing attack on bill banning boycotts of Israel
Briefly

This bill is flawed in four key areas: it breaks with our foreign policy; undermines freedom of speech; goes against international law; and promotes an odd exceptionalism in UK primary legislation.

This change delivers on the government's manifesto, stopping public bodies from wasting taxpayers' money pursuing their own foreign policy agendas and ensuring that the UK speaks with one voice internationally.
