Labour (Co-op) — Manchester Central

Speaking in the House of Commons on 12 June 2025

Debate

Business of the House

Contribution

May I thank the hon. Gentleman for raising this issue? The Government remain deeply concerned about the use of blasphemy laws to undermine human rights in Pakistan, and those conversations between our Government and other Governments happen continuously. The Foreign Secretary is in his place, so I am sure that he has heard the hon. Gentleman’s call.
