Now Available: Britain Recognised Palestine. Now What?

Posted: 9th April 2026



We’re excited to share a special new episode of the Britain Palestine Project Podcast – recorded live at Manchester Punk Festival.
 Britain Recognised Palestine. Now What?

Britain recognises Palestine.
Big announcement. Big headlines.
But what does it actually mean?

In this live conversation, Diana Safieh is joined by international law expert Emma Luce Scali (University of Manchester, UN consultant) to unpack what recognition changes – and what it doesn’t.

Together, they explore:

  • Is recognition meaningful, or largely symbolic?
  • What does it actually mean to be a “state” in international law?
  • Why enforcement – not just recognition – is the real issue
  • What the ICJ and ICC rulings mean in practice
  • And what governments (and all of us) can do next

This is a clear, honest conversation that cuts through the headlines and asks the bigger question: what comes after recognition?
