    Government to ban procurement boycotts on Ethical or Moral grounds.

    Britain to ban boycotts on Israeli goods | Daily Mail Online

    Never mind the EU telling us what to do, looks like anyone we sell weapons to can do the same.

        We've already got "sanctions" against Russia currently due to Russia invading Ukraine.

        And councils should be able to apply sanctions to who they like.

            Hence "sanctions" rather than sanctions which actually work.

                  Allow personal vendettas to get in the way of their constituents' freedoms eh?

                    have you met any of the self-serving individuals who make up local councils?
