Alwaght- British Labor Party says the government and parliament should investigate recent reports on an Israeli plot to remove pro-Palestinian members of the Parliament.
The opposition party said the "extremely disturbing" reports on Israeli regime's attempts to undermine a group of parliament members should be investigated in full.
An official in the Israeli embassy in London is heard in a video plotting to undermine and finally remove the parliament members who are known for their support for Palestinian people.

The party’s foreign affairs spokeswoman, Emily Thornberry, slammed Tel Aviv Sunday after release of a video, in which an Israeli embassy official is heard plotting to “take down” some of UK lawmakers.
"Can I give you some names of MPs that I would suggest you take down?" Israeli senior political officer Shai Masot is heard asking Maria Strizzolo, a former aide to a British Conservative lawmaker, at a London restaurant.
The regime initially shrugged off the video, secretly recorded by a journalist for Qatari-owned broadcaster Al Jazeera, but announced later that Masot would finish his mission “shortly.”
The Israeli ambassador to Britain, Mark Regev, also apologized to one of the MPs on the “hit list,” asserting that the matter is considered closed.
The move failed to silence the outraged shadow foreign secretary, who described Masot’s action as “improper interference in our democratic politics.”
