Marks & Spencerās relationship with Israel spans roughly 100 years, being the first to introduce āIsraeliā avocados to Britain, filling its prawn and mayo sandwiches with crustacea from Israel, and relying heavily on Israeli manufacturers for items such as suits and underwear. Though proof of this involvement dates back to 2000, more recently M&S came under fire for their 2023 Christmas advert, just months after October 7th, showing Palestinian colours burning in a fire disguised as a Christmas party hat.
