Proceeding contribution from Robert Marshall-Andrews (Labour) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 15 January 2009. It occurred during Debate on Gaza.


Gaza

I am grateful to the hon. Gentleman for giving way. The hon. Member for Liverpool, Riverside (Mrs. Ellman) would not give way to answer questions, so I wonder whether he will have a shot at answering this one. If there is any truth in the allegation that there is a deliberate and normal use of civilians as human shields—in other words, that they bring the attacks on themselves—why are journalists banned from Gaza when they could see precisely what is being alleged?
