With the outbreak of the Israel-Hamas war and the difficulty in containing fiery rhetoric, British lawmakers have described their fears and anxieties over their support of Israel.

It was 10 minutes of shouted accusations of being a "genocide enabler" and having "blood on your hands" that made a British lawmaker fear for his safety over his decision to voice support for Israel in its war with Hamas.

Almost touching noses with his accuser before walking away and warning he would call the police, the opposition Labour Party member said the incident in a town in his constituency was just the latest of several that made him change his behavior.
