In response to constituents' concerns Dawn Butler, MP for Brent Central, has tabled the following two parliamentary questions:
Dawn Butler has become Vice Chair of the Labour Friends of Palestine.
"What measures is the UK government currently taking to lift the
blockade of Gaza, particularly with respect to ensuring the vital entry
of humanitarian aid after the devastating attacks seen in 2014?"
"In
the light of the UN reported recording of 221 incidents of settler
violence with virtually no prosecutions, what discussions has the
minister held with Israeli ministers over the failure to prosecute
settlers for acts of violence against Palestinians?"
The questions are tabled for Tuesday July 14th and if not picked to be answered orally should receive written answers,
These questions are rhetorical presumably.
