Proceeding contribution from Gary Streeter (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 9 February 2010. It occurred during Adjournment debate on Conflict Prevention.


Conflict Prevention

My hon. Friend, who speaks from a sedentary position—I am sure that you will feel like ruling him out of order, Mr. Martlew—is absolutely right. We live in a globalising world, and the genie will never be put back in the bottle, so if we can build peace and prosperity in other nations, our children—if we must look at these things in terms of our national interest—will be able to grow up in a safer and better environment. I therefore suggest to the Minister that the UK's future is firmly one of peace making, and I look forward to his response.
