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

They have now been in custody for at least 18 months, I think. That is an unacceptably long period, and they must either face the law or be allowed to go about their business.
