Proceeding contribution from Matthew Offord (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 25 January 2018. It occurred during Backbench debate on Proscription of Hezbollah.


Proscription of Hezbollah

I, too, have met the Metropolitan police, including Pat Gallan, who informed me that the Met had a Queen’s counsel opinion stating that they are not able to take any action, for the reason the hon. Lady outlined. Pat Gallan did not feel that it was appropriate for me to read the opinion, but a legal opinion is simply that—just an opinion.
