Labour passed the motion to freeze arms sales to Israel so it is now Labour Party policy.

Conference is THE Sovereign body of the Labour Party.

Does UK sell any arms worth a consequence to Israel? Or is it a symbolic stunt from Labor?

I understand that British weapons firms export about £200M of goods to Israel last year, a tenfold rise since 2015.

Anti-armour munitions, sniper optics, missile components and so on.

Clearly a burgeoning market.
