Book review: Complicit

Review of Peter Oborne’s book Complicit

February 2026

We were pleased to host a talk last month by the author and journalist Peter Oborne about his new book Complicit: Britain’s role in the Destruction of Gaza. A detailed and hard-hitting review has been published by the British Palestine Project and is a recommended read. It amplifies the severe criticism of the BBC for its many failings in its reporting and in particular, never inviting acknowledged Jewish experts to be interviewed and almost completely failing to report on the hundreds of RAF flights which have taken place over Gaza the purpose of which is unclear.

It is also extremely critical of the British prime minister Sir Keir Starmer and contrasts his activities as a human rights lawyer and his highly questionable support for Israel now. Other parts of our media come in for criticism as well.

Britain’s role in Israel’s murderous campaign in Gaza.
