Veteran British peer, Baroness Tonge, was forced to resign from her post as a Liberal Democrat frontbencher in the House of Lords, after predicting the "Israeli" regime's end is close and "coming".

"It will not go on forever, it will not go on forever. "Israel" will lose support and then they will reap what they have sown", Tonge was filmed as saying last week during a student panel gathering at Middlesex University.
"Beware "Israel"... One day, the United States of America will get sick of giving £70 billion a year to "Israel" to support what I call America's aircraft carrier in the Middle East - that is "Israel". One day, the American people are going to say to the "Israel" lobby is the USA: enough is enough", Tonge addressed the gathering.

After her clear remarks, Liberal Democrat Leader Nick Clegg gave Tonge an ultimatum to apologize or step down; she refused to make an apology and therefore resigned.
In a statement issued after Clegg's request, Tonge affirmed, "I have been asked to apologize but refuse to do so and resign the whip of my party".

Tonge is known for her anti-"Israeli" and anti-Zionist stances, as once she said she would consider becoming a sacrifice bomber if she were a Palestinian.
"The comments I made were in protest at the treatment of Palestinians in Gaza and the West Bank", the resigned British peer stated.
""Israel" is acting against international law, the Geneva conventions, and Human Rights. They do this with impunity and if our political parties will not take action then individuals must", she further asserted.
