False narrative that Palestine did not exist or did not have representative of the people.
Here is the legislation on the Palestine Legislative Council Election of 1922.
Palestine Legislative Council Election Order, 1922 London, 10 August 1922
WHEREAS "The Palestine Order in Council, 1922" provides for the constitution of a Legislative Council in Palestine, and for the election of part of the members of the Council, and it is necessary to prescribe the system of election of such members; And whereas by treaty, capitulation, grant, usage, sufferance and other lawful means, His Majesty has power and jurisdiction within Palestine: NOW THEREFORE His Majesty, by virtue and in exercise of the powers in this behalf by the Foreign Jurisdiction Act, 1890, or otherwise in His Majesty vested, is pleased by and with the advice of his Privy Council to order, and it is hereby ordered as follows:– Title. 1. This Order may be cited as the Palestine Legislative Council Election Order, 1922. Definition. 2. In this Order, unless the contrary intention appears, "Secretary of State" means one of His Majesty's Principal Secretaries of State. "Register of voters" or "register" means the register prepared in accordance with this Order of the persons entitled to vote for the election of a member of the Legislative Council. "Member" means a member of the Legislative Council. "District" means one of the administrative divisions into which Palestine may be divided by the High Commissioner. For the purposes of this Order and pending the introduction of an Order in Council regulating Palestinian citizenship, the following persons shall be deemed to be Palestinian citizens:– (a) Turkish subjects habitually resident in the territory of Palestine at the date of commencement of this Order. 4/15/24, 9:48 AM interactive encyclopedia of the palestine question – palquest | palestine legislative council election order, 1922 https://www.palquest.org/en/historictext/23186/palestine-legislative-council-election-order-1922 2/7 (b) All persons of other than Turkish nationality habitually resident in the territory of Palestine at the said date, who shall within two calendar months of the said date make application for Palestinian citizenship in such form and before such officer as may be prescribed by the High Commissioner.

Every male Palestinian citizen over 25 years of age shall be entitled to vote at the primary elections unless he be a person who:– (a) Has lost his civil rights. (b) Claims to be under foreign protection. (c) Has been declared to be a bankrupt, and has not been discharged. (d) Has been placed under interdiction by a competent Court, and has not been released.

There are another 10 pages of this legislation, but I think everyone get the point - ie. Palestinian citizen had elections to elect legislators (lawmakers).
