Expansion of BDS activism prompts Israeli action in London

Israeli Public Security and Strategic Affairs Minister Gilad Erdan has rushed to London on Sunday to discuss a widening anti-occupation BDS activism with British authorities.

“Great Britain is the world center of the anti-Israel BDS campaign,” an embattled Erdan said.

“I’m going there to battle the boycott and delegitimization in every arena, and to discuss with members of the British government – which is also committed to fighting boycotts – ways to strengthen our cooperation against the anti-Semitic boycott campaign.”

Erdan will meet with Sajid Javid, minister for communities and local government, to discuss local governments in Britain which boycott Israel.
