Surprising given the disagreement with Starmer on Israel and the UK’s recognition of Palestine. On the one hand, the UK’s conditions for the recognition may never be met. On the other hand, it still looks like Starmer may be rewarding the actions of October 7 and distancing themselves from the US.

		Yes that recognition requires multiple conditions. It isn’t just a plain recognition. I believe the other 10 or so countries who announced the same thing are using the same conditions. But it’s hard to find a confirmation.
