Proceeding contribution from David Miliband (Labour) in the House of Commons on Monday, 19 January 2009. It occurred during Ministerial statement on Gaza.


Gaza

My hon. Friend knows that some very deep legal questions are engaged in the phrases that he has used. In that context, it is better to stick to the political statements that we have made, which have been clear and unequivocal in our view of the conflict. The legal consequences will of course be investigated, and any legal issues will of course be taken up, but they will rightly be taken up in the courts, rather than here.
