UK Supreme Court BDS Ruling Will Not Prevent Israel Divestment Ban
(Jewish Chronicle-UK) Lee Harpin - The UK Supreme Court's "narrow" technical ruling against the government over local authority divestments will not prevent forthcoming legislation to ban public bodies from imposing boycotts, the Conservative Friends of Israel group has said. A government spokesperson said this week, "We are committed...to stop local boycotts. We will therefore bring back new legislation that addresses the technical points raised by the Supreme Court."
