Proceeding contribution from Simon Hughes (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Commons on Monday, 14 March 2011. It occurred during Ministerial statement on Japan and the Middle East.


Japan and the Middle East

May I associate all my party colleagues with the condolences and sympathy expressed by the Prime Minister for the people of Japan and with the support expressed for all those coming to their aid? On Libya, in addition to the sense of urgency that the Prime Minister has expressed on the no-fly zone, is he willing to pursue, as the crisis group in Brussels has recommended, a possible initiative for a ceasefire on the ground in Libya so that a post-Gaddafi representative and an appropriate regime could be discussed as urgently as possible, as well as military action taken elsewhere?
