Essentially, they know which way public opinion - which wasn't particularly favourable to Israel anyway - is going. The longer we have Israeli bombardment of the civilian population and starvation in refugee camps beamed into our eyeballs it will only get worse.

The inability to say what the average person can see with his or her own eyes is an awful look for any politician. If Israel plan to carry on for two, three, four months the situation is untenable for Sunak and Starmer to hide behind Israel's right to 'self-defence'. The only question is who breaks first and when.
