Proceeding contribution from Roger Gale (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 4 March 2009. It occurred during Adjournment debate on Iran.
Iran
A few moment ago, my hon. Friend said that stability was the most valuable currency in the west, and we recognise that. He implied that the Iranians should trade on it, but if stability was the most valuable currency in the west and we did not care about hanging people from the ends of cranes, and about human rights, we could argue that Saddam Hussein’s regime was stable and, certainly, that Robert Mugabe’s regime was stable. Is my hon. Friend in favour of that?
