he UK’s new Prime Minister Boris Johnson has appointed Priti Patel as Home Secretary despite the fact that she was forced to resign two years ago after holding secret, unofficial meetings with Israeli ministers. The former international development secretary made several unofficial meetings including with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and was accused of conducting her own foreign policy in the Middle East.
The meetings included a visit to an Israeli army field hospital in the occupied Golan Heights; Patel asked officials within her department to look into whether British aid money could be funneled into the medical centre.
In her resignation letter Patel herself admitted she “fell below the high standards that are expected of a Secretary of State.”
Her appointment has drawn outrage across the board due to her record on key human rights issues.

England has had several Home Secretaries who would do nothing to protect white girls from non-white men. The Muslim Pakistani who was Home Secretary under May was promoted to Chancellor. The man replacing him is a Hindu who worships Israel.
