We in Scotland feel ashamed to be part of great Britain. The Scottish gov came as close to criticising Israel as any by offering medical help to any Palestine people hurt in fighting. Meanwhile the leader of UK expresses unconditional support for the killing of children.
The media bias is endemic even in uk reporting. The uk equivalent of aipac has been busy bribing politicians
As a Brit I object to the inclusion of Clare Short on your list here.
She had the opportunity to resign prior to the invasion and publicly threatened to do so. She was sweet talked into staying in the cabinet and her non resignation at this point was certainly a factor in assisting Tony Bliar on winning the Commons vote on going to war. For me this makes her as much a war criminal as the rest of the UK cabinet who supported the illegal invasion of Iraq.
Having a crisis of conscience afterwards does not excuse her crimes.....
