Meanwhile in the UK, Priti Patel, the Secretary of State for ­International Development is expected to be sacked imminently, over secret meetings with Israeli officials during a ‘family holiday’ in Israel.

While on holiday, she took the opportunity to meet a number of people and organisations, including a range of politicians, businesses, tech start ups, and humanitarian NGOs. These meetings were an opportunity to learn about the Israeli approach to technology and development.

The FCO (commonly called the Foreign Office) were aware of the visit while it was underway, but were not informed about it in advance.

The Independent remarked that her ‘family holiday’ must have been very busy since:

It emerged last night Theresa May only learned Ms Patel may have discussed giving money to the Israeli army with officials when it was reported in the media yesterday morning.

Patel heads a department which has a long history of humanitarian and development funding for Palestinians. Indeed she has taken a close interest in that funding, going so far as to announce a review last year which has already resulted in notable cuts of some £17 million.

The Secretary of State for ­International Development faced ­accusations she risked making Britain look like it favoured Tel Aviv over ­Palestine in the fragile Middle East talks.

Reports differ with some saying that UK Prime Minister and Leader of the Conservative Party Theresa May knew about these meeting and others saying they took place without May being aware.

This morning Ms Patel boarded a plane to return to the UK, cutting short a trip to Uganda.

Even the BBC are streaming her flight path back to London live.

See Patel’s apology statement here.

Regardless of the apology, there have been calls for her to lose her job over this matter. Shadow Foreign Office Minister Jon Trickett last night wrote to Mrs May suggesting Ms Patel could be guilty of “at least four serious breaches of the Ministerial Code” and called for her to quit.

The Labour Shadow Secretary of State for International Development, Kate Osamor, called for Patel to be fired.

Many have reacted with disgust.

Icke remarks on Twitter that she merely went to meet her real bosses.

Another interesting meeting behind closed doors.

Smoke filled rooms are nothing new...

But...

All things will come to light very soon.
