BEN CHACKO reports on fears at TUC Congress that the provisions in the legislation are liable to be watered down even further
YOU bump into remnants of the British presence everywhere in Palestine and Israel. I remember being surprised by the British post box in Nablus. In an unrecognised village near Nazareth — with houses about to be demolished — it is British certificates of ownership you are shown.
But British knowledge of Britain’s role in the region is little known or understood. It is not taught in schools and rarely featured even in our own rose-tinted histories of our colonial past.
Maybe because there was no major emigration or immigration, the story is not told. Unlike India, Australia, West Indies and the US, where versions of the truth exist in our history, the Palestinian story is untold.
