BDS Movement and Common Sense Face Threat From UK Government Ban

In February, the British government announced a new Tory-led parliamentary measure that will inflict "severe penalties" onto local governments and public institutions that boycott goods and services on an "ethical" (as opposed to purely financial) basis, including divestment. Planned to coincide with British Cabinet Office Minister Matthew Hancock's visit to Israel in February, the move is transparently directed at the international Boycott Divestment Sanctions movement to end Israel's occupation of Palestine, but further includes "companies involved in the arms trade, fossil fuels [and] tobacco products."
