That this House notes with concern Sony's announcement that, from January 2028, it will cease production of physical discs for all new PlayStation games, following reports that the PlayStation 6 will be released without a disc drive; further notes that this move, taken alongside the closure of the PlayStation 3 and PS Vita online stores, will compel consumers who wish to purchase new titles to do so exclusively through the PlayStation Store or digital retail partners; is alarmed that this shift removes consumers' ability to resell, lend, or retain permanent ownership of purchased games, entrenching Sony's control over game distribution, pricing, and platform access; is concerned that a single company acting as the sole digital gatekeeper for its console ecosystem raises serious questions about market dominance, consumer lock-in, and the potential for anti-competitive pricing and terms once physical alternatives are eliminated; further notes similar concerns have previously been raised regarding closed app store models on mobile platforms; and calls on the Government to refer Sony's PlayStation Store practices and the closure of physical distribution channels to the Competition and Markets Authority for investigation into whether this constitutes an abuse of a dominant market position and whether it risks harming consumer choice, competition, and the long-standing principle of game ownership.

That this House notes with outrage the findings of genocide by the United Nations Independent International Commission of Inquiry on the Occupied Palestinian Territory, including East Jerusalem, and Israel, documenting the deliberate targeting of Palestinian children by Israeli forces and widespread attacks on educational, religious and cultural sites in Gaza; expresses grave concern that the report concludes such attacks have caused severe and potentially irreversible harm to the Palestinian people and their fundamental human rights; reaffirms the obligation of all parties to protect civilians and civilian infrastructure during armed conflict; and calls on the Government to move beyond condemnation of these attacks by supporting independent international accountability mechanisms, suspending arms exports to Israel, and working with international partners to secure an immediate and permanent ceasefire, unrestricted humanitarian access, the protection of civilians and compliance with international law.

That this House condemns the announcement by Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu that the Israel Defence Forces plan to seize control of 70% of the Gaza Strip; notes that this represents a clear violation of the October 2025 ceasefire agreement and a further escalation of Israel’s military occupation of Palestinian territory; further notes statements by Israeli Defence Minister Israel Katz advocating the so-called voluntary migration of Palestinians from Gaza, which would in practice amount to the forcible displacement of a population already subjected to war and siege; expresses grave concern that more than two million Palestinians could be confined to less than one third of Gaza’s territory, worsening already catastrophic humanitarian conditions; also notes reports that Israel has repeatedly violated the ceasefire through continued military attacks and territorial expansion, resulting in the deaths of hundreds of Palestinians; reaffirms the right of Palestinians to remain on their land and live free from occupation and forced displacement; and calls on the Government to condemn these actions, support meaningful sanctions, end all military cooperation and arms exports to Israel, and work urgently with international partners to secure a permanent ceasefire, unrestricted humanitarian access and justice for the Palestinian people.

That this House marks 78 years since the start of the Nakba, when more than 750,000 Palestinians were forcibly displaced from their homes by Israeli forces; recognises that the Nakba is not merely a historical event, but an ongoing process of dispossession, displacement and oppression affecting Palestinians across historic Palestine and the Palestinian diaspora; notes that the International Court of Justice has found Israel to be committing the crime of apartheid against Palestinians, and is further investigating Israel for carrying out a genocide in the Gaza Strip; commends all those commemorating the anniversary of the Nakba in solidarity with the Palestinian people; reaffirms the inalienable right of Palestinians to return to their homeland, as enshrined in international law, and calls on the Government to impose meaningful sanctions including stopping any British trade, military cooperation, or diplomatic support that aids or assists Israel’s illegal occupation.

That this House expresses grave concern at the passage by the Israeli Knesset on 30 March 2026 of the Penal Law (Amendment – Death Penalty for Terrorists), which introduces the death penalty as the default punishment for Palestinians convicted of terrorism offences in territories under Israeli control, including in the occupied West Bank; notes that the law enables military courts to impose capital punishment by majority decision, curtails due process protections and permits executions within 90 days, including by hanging; further notes that Palestinians are tried in military courts lacking full guarantees of independence, impartiality and fair trial rights, while Israeli citizens in the same territory are subject to civilian courts, resulting in differential legal systems and penalties; expresses deep concern that this framework may amount to discriminatory treatment and contribute to a system of apartheid, as identified in international legal analyses; recognises that the death penalty contravenes the United Kingdom’s longstanding opposition to capital punishment and raises serious concerns under international human rights law, including the rights to life, equality before the law and due process; and calls on the Government urgently to condemn the introduction of this law to ensure accountability for serious human rights violations.

That this House marks the first anniversary of the killing of 15 Palestinian aid workers in Tel al-Sultan, Gaza, on 23 March 2025, including paramedics from the Palestine Red Crescent Society, firefighters from the Palestinian Civil Defence, and a United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees in the Near East staff member; notes findings from a joint investigation by Forensic Architecture and Earshot showing Israeli forces fired over 900 rounds at a convoy of clearly marked emergency vehicles before advancing on survivors, some of whom were reportedly shot at close range; further notes the investigation describes a coordinated attack with no return fire and the burial of victims alongside their vehicles in a mass grave; recognises the protected status of humanitarian personnel under international law; calls on the Government to clarify any UK surveillance activity over Gaza following the attack; urges suspension of all UK military collaboration with Israel pending a full, independent investigation; further calls on the Government to support international efforts to ensure accountability and protect civilians and aid workers in conflict zones; and further recognises the UK’s obligations under international humanitarian law, including the duty to prevent complicity in violations and to uphold the safety of medical and emergency personnel.

That this House condemns the use of Grok AI to generate and disseminate sexually explicit and non-consensual images of women and children on X, including digitally undressing and sexualising images of minors; notes with alarm that such material has included depictions of children as young as 10 and has circulated widely despite platform safeguards and stated policies; recognises that this conduct may constitute the creation and distribution of illegal sexual content, including child sexual abuse material; notes that Ofcom has urgently contacted X and its developer xAI regarding compliance with UK online safety duties and has not received adequate assurances; deplores the failure of X to effectively moderate or remove this material; recalls that UK legislation passed in 2025 criminalised the creation or request of intimate deepfakes without consent, but has yet to be fully implemented; and calls on the Government to urgently set out what enforcement action will be taken, when the law will be brought fully into force, and what immediate steps will be taken to protect users, particularly women and children, from further harm caused by AI-generated sexual abuse.

That this House expresses its solidarity with the Global Sumud Flotilla, the largest humanitarian flotilla ever organised to provide aid to Gaza, where a fleet of ships have departed simultaneously from ports across Europe and North Africa; notes that this peaceful international effort will bring together elected representatives, humanitarian activists, and artists from around 80 countries, united in their call for justice and humanity; further notes that for more than 17 years Gaza’s 2.1 million residents have endured a suffocating blockade that has deliberately deprived civilians, including infants and children, of food, medicine, clean water and other essential supplies, creating one of the gravest humanitarian crises of our time; condemns the deliberate starvation of the civilian population of Gaza, including the denial of water and humanitarian relief, which constitutes a war crime under international law; recalls that UN experts have affirmed the right of the people of Gaza to receive aid through their own territorial waters, and the right of humanitarian vessels to free passage in international waters; agrees that Israel must not obstruct this mission and must comply with international law, including orders of the International Court of Justice requiring unimpeded access for humanitarian aid; highlights Integrated Food Security Phase Classification analysis which shows mass death due to deliberate man-made food shortages and lack of access to medical supplies; and calls on the Government to support international efforts to end the blockade, ensure safe passage for the flotilla, and uphold legal and moral obligations to stop starvation in Gaza.

That this House condemns the Government’s proposed Statutory Instrument to proscribe Palestine Action as a terrorist organisation; believes this constitutes a dangerous escalation in the crackdown on civil liberties; recognises the fundamental distinction between non-violent direct action and terrorism; affirms the right to protest as a core tenet of any democratic society; notes that criminal offences such as property damage should be dealt with under existing criminal law, not by redefining protest as terrorism; recalls the proud British history of disruptive protest by the Quakers, Suffragettes and others, whose actions were instrumental in winning rights, not committing terrorism; asserts that the attempt to brand Palestine Action as terrorists is an authoritarian move to silence dissent and shield the UK’s complicity in Israel’s military actions; highlights growing concern from UN human rights experts over the misuse of anti-terror powers against peaceful activists; further condemns reports of activists being detained without informing their families; warns this is part of a broader pattern of disproportionate repression against campaigners such as Just Stop Oil and Youth Demand; further asserts that criminalising support for a protest group is a chilling threat to freedom of expression; and opposes this Statutory Instrument in defence of civil liberties, human rights and the ongoing struggle for peace and justice for the Palestinian people.

That this House notes the growing disparity in wealth distribution within the UK; recognises the need for a fairer tax system that ensures the wealthiest individuals contribute their fair share to society; calls on the Government to introduce a 2% annual wealth tax on individuals with assets exceeding £10 million; believes that such a tax would generate significant revenue that could be used to fund essential public services, reduce inequality, and support economic recovery; and urges the Government to consider the implementation of this policy as a step towards a more equitable and just society.
