Lord Roberts of Llandudno (LD)

Speaking in the House of Lords on 2 June 2025

Debate

European Convention on Human Rights: Protocol 12

Contribution

I am a Methodist minister, and I see so many people absolutely despairing. “What are we going to do?” “What will be the consequence of what is happening in the world at the present time?” Signing this will be one step: one indication that we know where we want to go. That is what the declaration is. So I urge the Government to do this. It is not just a fancy thing; it is so meaningful and so required in the world today. We could be one of the leading nations in that move to the future.
