Bell Ribeiro-Addy

Labour — Clapham and Brixton Hill

Speaking in the House of Commons on 6 February 2025

Debate

Low-income Countries: Debt Cancellation

Contribution

This is not necessarily a divisive issue. When we ask those who are suffering the most from these matters, we find that they believe that it is difficult to move forward because of some of the wrongs that have been done to them in the past. It is simply about recognition and looking at ways to tackle this issue, and at how we can deliver recompense for the wrong that we have done. It is not about being divisive; it is just about accepting what went wrong and understanding that we have a duty to make it right.
