Proceeding contribution from Fabian Hamilton (Labour) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 11 January 2012. It occurred during Adjournment debate on Iran (Human Rights).


Iran (Human Rights)

I, too, was in the delegation to Iran in November 2007. Would my hon. Friend agree that we were given privileged access to, among other things, some of the dissenters? Following on from the point made by my hon. Friend the Member for Islington North (Jeremy Corbyn), there are quite a number of dissidents who stand up for the things that they believe in—a free, open, democratic and pluralist Iran—despite being oppressed day in, day out.
