Proceeding contribution from Tony Lloyd (Labour) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 2 June 2010. It occurred during Ministerial statement on Gaza Flotilla.


Gaza Flotilla

The Foreign Secretary has rightly referred to the strength of feeling in this House, and, indeed, almost on a global basis. However, he will be as aware as anyone that Israel has a well-founded reputation for toughing out these crises, hoping that they will go away, and has been very successful in doing that. He made the point, again rightly, that these events are the recruiting sergeants for terrorism. Can he tell the House—this is a serious question—what will be different this time?
