I mean, some things haven't really changed, but uh anyway, so um just before we we dive into some of the responses to what Ed Miliband said on Tuesday, and we're recording this episode on Wednesday at three PM, Lise, um, can you sum up just how how big a moment it felt yesterday when the British government changed its policy towards the West Bank and the Israeli government in quite a big way?
voice-verified
I watched it back again, yeah.
voice-verified
Yeah
voice-verified
And we can talk about that in a second.
voice-verified
What struck me today on Wednesday was watching Prime Minister's questions and we got to the end of the exchange between Andy Burnham and Kemi Badenok, where she'd used up her six questions.
voice-verified
So Andy Burnham knew this was kind of his last word in that bit of PMQs.
voice-verified
And he said, and he looked around at all the MPs on both sides of the house and he said, She talked about leadership.
voice-verified
Let me tell you about leadership.
voice-verified
And I just thought, yeah, he's using this as a sort of calling card for his entire prime ministership.
voice-verified
It's not just, oh, we're extending British government policy and going a bit further than the last lot did, or the situation's changed, so we're sort of upping our response a little bit.
voice-verified

voice-verified
This isn't just a sort of
voice-verified
I don't know, a a technicality or
voice-verified
a sort of bog standard response to a situation.
voice-verified
He's he's going all in.
voice-verified
Right, Lise, let's talk about some of the reactions then.
voice-verified
So we heard just as we finished recording yesterday's episode from Gideon Tsar, the Israeli foreign minister, uh and the sort of the more obvio the most obvious thing that he said was closing the British consulate in East Jerusalem.
voice-verified
Just explain why that's so significant.
voice-verified
And we we'll talk about the two state solution in a second.
voice-verified
But Jane, uh uh do you think the UK is being singled out by the Israeli government here? 'Cause actually the foreign ministers from France and Canada made the same statement and lots of other countries announced similar things yesterday.
