British politicians detained by Israel why trying to access West Bank Three British parliamentarians have been detained by Israel while trying to access the occupied West Bank. Labour MP Clive Lewis, Scottish National Party MP Lara Bird, and Scottish Greens MSP Kate Nevens were all denied access to the territory. They were travelling as part of a delegation organised by the Progressive International. Israel closed off the occupied territory ahead of the elections.
