The British government’s tax exemption for Bahrain’s Al Khalifa became a problem.
Members of the British Parliament have protested against the government’s decision to provide financial assistance from the tax revenue to the Ministry of the Interior and institutions affiliated with the Al Khalifa regime, which have committed gross human rights violations in the last 10 years since the beginning of the popular revolution.
The British government has come under pressure from politicians and members of parliament for exposing its financial support for the Bahraini regime, which is accused of gross human rights abuses against its citizens.
According to Al-Quds Al-Arabi, a group of British politicians at the same time accused the Bahraini government of trying to justify its image, saying that Al-Khalifa officials were still seeking peace while still participating in the Yemeni war.
According to the Middle East, members of the British Parliament accused the British government of supporting the activities and funds of the Bahraini regime, which is accused of gross human rights violations, through the money it receives from British taxpayers.
According to the report, members of the British Parliament are concerned about their country’s support for the Al Khalifa regime, and therefore held a parliamentary session on political prisoners in the Gulf Arab country.
The Middle East has reported that the British government is supporting the Bahraini Ministry of the Interior and the institutions responsible for monitoring political prisoners in Bahrain with revenue from taxpayers.
According to the news site, Brendan O’Hara, a member of the Scottish National Party, has raised the issue in the British Parliament, a decade after the start of British financial support for Bahrain, despite reports of dozens of political prisoners in Bahrain. They are behind bars just because they belong to the pro-democracy movement in Bahrain.
“Britain has long turned a blind eye to widespread human rights abuses in Bahrain, while sending millions of pounds of British taxpayer money to the Gulf, hoping for reform,” the report said. .
