Proceeding contribution from Gerald Howarth (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Monday, 23 June 2008. It occurred during Ministerial statement on Zimbabwe Elections.
Zimbabwe Elections
Many people find it morally repugnant that the international community has fiddled so ineffectively as Zimbabwe has literally burned. Can the Foreign Secretary tell the House how many British subjects there are in Zimbabwe, and what sort of plans are in place in the event of civil war, which many correspondents are now suggesting might happen? What contingency plans are there to remove those British citizens to safety? I say to the Foreign Secretary that the Almighty is not the only person who could remove Mr. Mugabe; the Special Air Service could also do a pretty good job.
