Actors, singers, writers and intellectuals have signed an open letter to British Prime Minister Keir Starmer calling on his government to end its “complicity” in Gaza, Al Jazeera reports.
More than 300 public figures, including Sherlock Holmes star Benedict Cumberbatch, singer and activist Annie Lennox and sports broadcaster Gary Lineker have signed the letter led by refugee charity Choose Love.
“You can’t call it ‘intolerable’, yet do nothing … prime minister, what will you choose? Complicity in war crimes, or the courage to act?” the letter read, before calling on the government to take steps to “prevent and punish genocide”.
