CNN Exposes Lord Walney: UK Government Adviser’s Secret Ties to Israel Lobby Revealed
September 11, 2025
Isobel Yeung just grilled Lord Walney — the so-called “independent advisor” — and exposed his dirty ties to the pro-Israel lobby pushing to criminalize Palestine Action.
This isn’t about “security.” It’s about silencing dissent and shielding apartheid.
The mask is slipping. The lobby is being exposed.

English Script:
Isobel Yeung: I mean, when you see these, you know, I spoke to a 70 something year old grandma at these protests, you know, literally holding up a sign and getting arrested. Do you think they’re a terrorist?
Lord John Woodcock: If they meet the…and they are doing this to overwhelm the criminal justice system very deliberately.
Isobel Yeung: But they’re also exposing what they see as the ridiculousness of the prescription. Half of the people that I saw at the protests were over 60. I mean they’re not what people think of when they think of terrorists.
Lord John Woodcock: No, no, no. Sure.
Isobel Yeung: So are they terrorists?
Lord John Woodcock: Well, the criminal justice system will have to deal with them and my…
Isobel Yeung: But you’re saying they are terrorists.
Lord John Woodcock: No, I’m saying that if you…
Isobel Yeung: But you’re not answering the question. Do you see them as terrorists?
Lord John Woodcock: If you’re…
Isobel Yeung: You’re the one pushing this prescription. So surely you think they are terrorists.
Lord John Woodcock: If you break the law, then you face having a criminal record…
Isobel Yeung: A terrorist.
vYou face having a criminal record.
Isobel Yeung: Associated with terrorists.
Lord John Woodcock: And they know that, and that’s why they are doing it.
Isobel Yeung: Are you the right person to have been advising the UK government on this? I mean, you were the head of Labor Friends of Israel. You’ve taken several all expensive trips, paid to Israel. And so you can understand why people would question your motivations.
Lord John Woodcock: I could understand why they would want to, because they don’t want to account for their own actions. But people will make up their own minds on me. My interest in declarations are out in the open. That’s why you are able to talk about it. We ought to be able to say it’s not okay to break the law and to terrorize working people.
