They are actively supplying israel with weapons for genocide and Netanyahu disrespects them???
My guess is Burnham refuses to talk about it. Too much money is changing hands. If the genocide doesn't bother him an insult won't phase him.
benny probably fears they are losing support from the UK.
This also helps to rally the far right at home who think we’re overrun by Muslims. So it galvanises the sort of people Burnham supports.
