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

Gentleman says, but the humanitarian advice that we are getting, from the US and elsewhere, is that it is overland work that is absolutely critical to the humanitarian situation.
