Proceeding contribution from Jeremy Corbyn (Labour) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 7 March 2007. It occurred during Adjournment debate on Democratic Republic of the Congo.


Democratic Republic of the Congo

Does my hon. Friend recall when we stood with others in a small village in Bas-Congo that had no electricity and no water, and the only thing that we could see were huge pylons above us taking electricity over the villages? Nobody could afford to connect to that supply; it is simply a crazy situation.
