Dr Roz Savage

Liberal Democrat — South Cotswolds

Speaking in the House of Commons on 16 December 2024

Debate

Israel and Palestine

Contribution

I thank the hon. Member for her intervention, and I agree. Given that the Prime Minister and his Foreign Secretary have both committed in principle to Palestinian statehood, and given that the majority of the international community has already recognised the statehood of Palestine, we might validly ask what the Government’s criteria are for the time that is “most conducive” to peace, and why we are lagging behind the rest of the world and dragging our feet on this issue.
