Commons ChamberWhat circumstances would change the Government’s policy towards Israel, which is currently determined to oppose a two-state solution?
My right hon. Friend reflects one strand of opinion in Israel, but he does not reflect the fact that there are many others. There is, not only inside Israel but across the region, internationally and at the UN, a very clear understanding that a two-state solution is the right answer. People may disagree about how we get there, but most accept that that is the destination.
