Exclusive: MPs demand investigation into British Museum’s 'erasure' of Palestine

Cross-party MPs demand an independent investigation into the British Museum’s removal of terms like 'Palestine' and 'Israelite occupation' from displays, citing a Middle East Eye investigation linking the changes to pro-Israel lobbying in late 2024. The museum defended the alterations as based on 'audience testing,' but no records of such testing exist, according to internal emails and freedom of information responses.
