Proceeding contribution from Tobias Ellwood (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Monday, 23 June 2008. It occurred during Ministerial statement on Zimbabwe Elections.


Zimbabwe Elections

Will the Foreign Secretary elaborate on the Prime Minister's comment that there would be substantial support from the UK in a post-Mugabe Zimbabwe, bearing in mind the pressures that are already being placed on our helicopter fleet? Does he also agree that it is time to call for Zimbabwe to be suspended from the African Union? May I encourage him to go for his Adlai Stevenson moment, and to go to the UN, with some evidence, to say that the talking should stop and we need to see some action, with the rest of the world coming up behind us?
