Proceeding contribution from Jim McGovern (Labour) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 9 June 2009. It occurred during Adjournment debate on Aung San Suu Kyi.
Aung San Suu Kyi
I am sure the hon. Gentleman is aware that it is not only Members of Parliament here in Westminster who are gravely concerned about the welfare of Aung San Suu Kyi. Last night my local authority, Dundee city council, with cross-party support, backed a campaign to free this very brave lady. Does the hon. Gentleman agree that the current trial is no more than an effort to ensure that she is incarcerated before the elections in Burma that are scheduled to take place next year?
