Proceeding contribution from Andrew Mackinlay (Labour) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 9 July 2009. It occurred during Adjournment debate on Global Security (Iran).


Global Security (Iran)

To make it clear, all I want is the PMOI to be able to put up candidates in elections. That is what is being denied to it. As with many organisations historically and in Europe and elsewhere, it is an umbrella organisation. The hon. Gentleman was wrong that the organisation is Marxist, but I do not want to labour the point. The PMOI contains clerics and secularists, and people of the left and of the right. All it wants is the right to seek election in a free, democratic Iran.
