Proceeding contribution from Denis MacShane (Independent (affiliation)) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 1 March 2011. It occurred during Ministerial statement on Aid Reviews.
Aid Reviews
The Prime Minister, both in Kuwait last week and yesterday, has held up freedom of association as something that Britain should support, so this attack on the International Labour Organisation will horrify every trade union worker around the world. Britain founded the ILO, and in the 1980s the ILO was central to getting rid of Soviet communism and apartheid in South Africa. I know that the Secretary of State has to represent Lazard and the banking community, but this attack on working people around the world is shameful.
