Great British Energy BillContribution
This amendment puts it to Parliament: do we want a slavery-free green transition, or are we content to allow the Government’s objectives to be achieved through forced labour in a state accused by the House of Commons of genocide? It should be inconceivable that the UK, which did so much to end the scourge of slavery around the world, would today accept or be willing turn a blind eye to products made by a state with an imposed system of forced labour. Good does not rest on the shoulders of a wrong. I beg to move.
