With much of the World sickened by Netanyahu's actions in the Palestinian territories calls for Israel to be excluded from international competitions like the pointless Eurovision song contest and the European football Championship are growing .
Today paid member of "Labour friends of Israel" and Labour's current Housing Secretary , Steve Reed , has said he doesn't think banning Israel from European sporting competitions is a good idea saying "I'm not convinced that's the right way to go about things. I'm not sure we should politicise sport in quite that way". (since when was Israel European ?)
I remember when South Africa was banned from International cricket in the 70s to put pressure on the then white run government because of their Apartheid regime , pressure seemed to have an effect there Mr Reed.
Steve Reed's voting record below shows his acquiescence to Israel , including the £1,800 donation he was given in 2013 for a "fact finding" trip (holiday) to Israel paid for by Israel.

I'm not a supporter of Hamas or the Palestinians but I am happy to speak out against despotic regimes , Netanyahu is the head of one such regime IMO.
