London based Friends: event on Thurs at 6pm. wanted to share in case anyone would like to go. Ralph Wilde, prof of Int Law, was involved in bringing proceedings against Israel for genocide at the ICC and was meant to give this talk last week...
The Legislative Response: The ‘No More Loopholes’ Act Following the press conference and the release of this detailed evidence, MP Jenny Kwan will debate the merits of her Private Member’s Bill, the “No More Loopholes Act” (C-233), in the House of Commons on Wednesday, November 19, 2025. This bill is the essential legislative remedy to the systemic failures exposed in this report. The Act seeks to amend the Export and Import Permits Act to: Remove the U.S. Exemption: Close the fatal loophole by applying the same strict export control scrutiny and human rights risk assessment to military exports destined for the United States as it does to every other country. Ensure Transparency: Mandate enhanced annual public reports to Parliament on Canada’s compliance with the Arms Trade Treaty. The Demand: A Comprehensive, Non-Negotiable Two-Way Arms Embargo The coalition is demanding immediate and decisive action to restore Canada’s legal and moral standing: Impose a Full Two-Way Arms Embargo: Immediately halt the transfer of all military goods and technology to and from Israel, including via the United States. Support Bill C-233: All parties must immediately support and fast-track the passage of MP Kwan’s “No More Loopholes Act” to legally close the U.S. backdoor permanently. End the Deception: Provide full public transparency on all existing military export contracts and immediately cancel any that enable the war in Gaza. The only way to genuinely and comprehensively end Canada’s complicity in the genocide is to immediately halt the flow of weapons and military components—both directly and indirectly via the U.S. loophole.

Here is a focused list of organisations that are clearly and publicly identified as **filers of complaints / dossiers about crimes or war crimes in Gaza to the Metropolitan Police (SO15) or other UK authorities**, based on press and NGO statements. I am limiting this list to cases where (a) Gaza is explicitly the context of the alleged crimes, and (b) the filer is clearly named in public reporting. --- ### 1. International Centre of Justice for Palestinians (ICJP) London-based legal NGO. Publicly reported Gaza-specific filings: 1. **Jan 2023 – Gaza war-crimes complaint to SO15** * Complaint submitted to Scotland Yard’s War Crimes Unit (SO15) alleging war crimes in Gaza and responsibility of Israeli and British nationals. ([33 Bedford Row][1]) 2. **Jan 2024 – UK ministers’ complicity in Gaza war crimes** * ICJP handed hard drives and evidence dossiers to SO15, alleging UK government ministers’ complicity in war crimes committed by Israel in Gaza, including attacks on civilians and starvation. ([ICJP][2]) 3. **May 2024 – “Starvation as a method of warfare” in Gaza** * Extended complaint to Scotland Yard’s War Crimes Team over Israel’s alleged use of starvation as a method of warfare and targeting of Palestinian civilians in the Gaza Strip, with a 60-page complaint and ~800 pages of evidence. ([prc.org.uk][3]) 4. **June 2024 – UK-born Israeli ex-official & Gaza** * Formal complaint to SO15 accusing a British-born Israeli ex-government official of abetting and conspiring in war crimes against Palestinian civilians in Gaza. ([JURIST][4]) Reference points: ICJP own releases and coverage in Middle East Eye, Al Jazeera, The Times, The Independent, and Palestinian Return Centre’s report on the May 2024 complaint. ([ICJP][2]) --- ### 2. Public Interest Law Centre (PILC) UK legal centre. Gaza-specific filings: 1. **April 2025 – 240-page dossier on 10 Britons fighting in Gaza** * PILC led a legal team that lodged a 240-page report with the War Crimes Team at London’s Metropolitan Police (SO15), accusing ten British or dual nationals who fought with the Israeli military in Gaza of war crimes (killings of civilians and aid workers, attacks on hospitals and protected sites, forced displacement). ([pilc.org.uk][5]) 2. **Sept 2025 – Joint “Herzog complaint” (Gaza-related war crimes)** * PILC coordinated or supported a complaint to the Met, CPS and Attorney General seeking the arrest of Israeli President Isaac Herzog, based on alleged personal and accessory responsibility for war crimes and crimes against humanity in Gaza (including starvation and systematic destruction). ([pilc.org.uk][6]) Reference points: PILC blog posts on the April 2025 report and on the Herzog complaint; coverage in The Guardian, Arab News, TRT World, and other media. ([pilc.org.uk][5]) --- ### 3. Palestinian Centre for Human Rights (PCHR) Gaza-based human-rights NGO. Gaza-specific filing in UK system: * **Co-complainant on the 10-Britons Gaza war-crimes dossier** * The 240-page war-crimes complaint submitted to the Met’s War Crimes Team (SO15) against 10 Britons who served with the Israeli military in Gaza was filed on behalf of PCHR and PILC together, representing Palestinians in Gaza and in Britain. ([Anadolu Ajansı][7]) Reference points: PILC and Stop the War write-ups, Anadolu Agency report on the case, and other press summarising PCHR as joint filer. ([Anadolu Ajansı][7]) --- ### 4. Hind Rajab Foundation (HRF) Human-rights organisation focused on Gaza. Gaza-specific filings: 1. **Sept 2025 – Herzog complaint (Gaza starvation / destruction)** * Co-filer with ELSC and Stop the War of a criminal complaint in the UK against Israeli President Isaac Herzog, submitting a case summary to the Met War Crimes Team and CPS detailing his alleged role in starvation policy and systematic destruction in Gaza. ([hindrajabfoundation.org][8]) 2. **Other HRF complaints tied to Gaza** * HRF has also announced criminal complaints in London over attacks on humanitarian vessels headed to or from Gaza and over named individuals’ roles in Gaza atrocities; these complaints are framed as war-crimes filings to UK authorities, including London’s Metropolitan Police. Reference points: HRF’s own posts on the Herzog complaint and legal actions over Gaza-linked atrocities, plus coverage in Middle East Monitor and other outlets. ([hindrajabfoundation.org][8]) --- ### 5. European Legal Support Center (ELSC) Legal NGO supporting Palestinian rights. Gaza-specific filing: * **Joint Herzog complaint (Gaza crimes)** * ELSC is one of the three organisations (with HRF and Stop the War) that jointly submitted the case summary and formal notifications to the Met, CPS and Attorney General regarding alleged war crimes and crimes against humanity in Gaza by Isaac Herzog. ([pilc.org.uk][6]) Reference points: PILC blog and HRF / Stop the War statements on the Herzog complaint name ELSC as a co-complainant. ([pilc.org.uk][6]) --- ### 6. Stop the War Coalition UK anti-war campaign group. Gaza-specific filing: * **Joint Herzog complaint (Gaza crimes)** * Stop the War is explicitly listed as a co-complainant with HRF and ELSC in the UK Herzog case, having written to the Met and CPS and joining in the legal complaint concerning Herzog’s alleged involvement in war crimes in Gaza. ([stopwar.org.uk][9]) Reference points: Stop the War’s article “Stop the War joins legal action seeking arrest of Israeli president” and associated legal partners’ statements. ([stopwar.org.uk][9]) --- ### 7. Campaign Against Arms Trade (CAAT) UK arms-trade campaign group. Gaza-specific filing: * **Sept 2025 – Complaint over DSEI exhibitors aiding Gaza war crimes** * CAAT publicly announced that it had made a **criminal complaint** to the War Crimes Unit at the Met Police (SO15) concerning individuals exhibiting at the DSEI arms fair in London, for aiding and abetting Israeli war crimes in Gaza. ([CAAT][10]) Reference points: CAAT press release and coverage (e.g. The New Arab) describing the complaint to SO15 over “aiding and abetting war crimes in Gaza.” ([CAAT][10]) --- ### 8. Resistance Kitchen (campaign template re Elbit Systems UK) Campaign group, primarily organising local activism. Gaza-specific legal push: * **Template letters urging SO15 war-crimes investigations into Elbit Systems UK** * Resistance Kitchen has provided a campaign template urging residents to write to local police and the SO15 War Crimes Investigations Unit, calling for investigations into Elbit Systems UK for “suspected war crimes in Gaza”. ([resistancekitchen.uk][11]) This is, as published, a coordinated push for many individuals to file war-crimes reports related to Gaza. The template itself is a public, named effort to generate such complaints, although each individual complaint is filed by residents rather than by Resistance Kitchen as a single “dossier.” Reference point: Resistance Kitchen “Demand Criminal Investigation Into Elbit Systems UK” campaign page. ([resistancekitchen.uk][11]) --- ### 9. “UK and international lawyers” teams (with Gaza focus) In several cases, the press identifies the filers collectively as “UK and international lawyers” or “a team of legal experts”, but the underlying organisations are still the ones listed above. Examples (Gaza-specific): * The 240-page Gaza dossier on 10 Britons (PILC + PCHR; led by Michael Mansfield KC) described as being submitted by “UK and international lawyers” to the Met. ([The Guardian][12]) * ICJP’s complaints on Gaza war crimes and UK complicity, described variously as being submitted by “a UK advocacy group” or “NGO” in Al Jazeera and Anadolu Agency reporting, but clearly identified as ICJP. ([Anadolu Ajansı][13]) I have not added these as separate “groups” because the organisational identity is already captured under ICJP, PILC, PCHR, etc. --- If you now want, the next refinement can be: – narrow this list to only those who have filed directly to **SO15** (as opposed to more general “British authorities”); or – add a column showing which specific incident(s) or time-period in Gaza each complaint covers (e.g. October 2023–, specific attacks, starvation policy, etc.). * [pilc.org.uk]( ) * [The Guardian]( ) * [ICJP]( ) * [Al Jazeera]( ) * [Anadolu Ajansı]( https://www.aa.com.tr/en/middle-east/-they-will-be-held-accountable-uk-gaza-war-crimes-case-aims-to-deter-israeli-army-enlistment/3532821?utm_source=chatgpt.com) [1]: "Haydee Dijkstal instructed for complaint to Scotland" [2]: "Criminal Complaint Alleging UK Government Ministers ..."
