Proceeding contribution from John Bercow (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 19 July 2007. It occurred during Adjournment debate on Zimbabwe.


Zimbabwe

I am extremely grateful, and I am sorry to press this point but it is important. Gideon Gono is both a craven lickspittle of Mugabe and the architect of the destruction of the livelihoods of millions of Zimbabweans. Why on earth can we not unilaterally impose a ban on his coming to this country? Which EU member states stand in the way of more robust and concerted action? I think we should be told.
