Mr David Lammy

Labour — Tottenham

Speaking in the House of Commons on 9 December 2024

Debate

Syria

Contribution

Drawing on my 24 years of experience in this House, I would say that all Members take the subject of military action with a seriousness and sobriety we do not see with any other issue that comes to the Chamber. I do not think there is any disagreement in the House about Assad. It is important to remember that the person responsible for the crimes against the Syrian people is Assad, and his brutal regime.
