Mr David Lammy

Labour — Tottenham

Speaking in the House of Commons on 11 November 2025

Debate

Human Rights Laws

Contribution

The right hon. Gentleman, who is hugely experienced, will know that it is important that we do not do anything that might, for example, undermine the Good Friday agreement, in respect of which the ECHR is fundamentally important. He rightly mentioned the refugee convention, which sits with the United Nations. I will be going to Strasbourg shortly, where I will be taking up many of these issues.
