Again, wordplay belies intent. If they have to get involved in the negative treatment of a delegation like this, when a situation such as this arises, it is demonstrably their business.

I feel like that’s a lot of assumptions based on OP’s brief, but I don’t disagree with anything you said.

The UK government has already released a statement saying that they expect Israel to host delegations like this. Ergo, they have indicated that it is their business. Actions are more indicative of the situation than wordplay.

If this causes networking issues, your setup is already too complicated to manage through a flat set of docker containers. That’s not a bad thing, this just isn’t the horse for that course so to speak.

If you’re very concerned just have your prod environment and kick up test services in docker containers and test your tweaks and changes there.

Doing this ad-hoc will be easier and more practical than trying to maintain two full environments like you’re a series B startup finding it’s feet!

So a “parliamentarian delegation” isn’t official government business?

The UK Foreign Office said the group was part of a parliamentary delegation - however Israel’s immigration authority contested this claim, saying the delegation had not been acknowledged by any Israeli official.

The MPs said the trip had been organised with UK charities that had “over a decade of experience in taking parliamentary delegations”.

We don’t need Israel’s acknowledgement or approval to label the WGs of the UK government. If there should have been coordination with their government on the constraints of their visit, that’s another matter. It doesn’t make the delegation any less a part of government business by their own definition.

Describing the outcomes in terms of functions over shell states, as you have, is the quickest and most transparent way of demonstrating that they aren’t the same.

The article was a fun “scenic route” to the same conclusion, though.
