Mr David Lammy

Labour — Tottenham

Speaking in the House of Commons on 30 July 2024

Debate

Recognition of Palestine

Contribution

Let me begin by welcoming the right hon. Gentleman to his position. It is great to see him where he is, and not on the Government Benches. He will know that these are very serious issues, and that the test under criterion 2c is whether there is a “clear risk”. That is based on very careful assessments of the law. He would expect me to pursue that with all sobriety and integrity, and that is what I intend to do.
