Proceeding contribution from David Burton-Sampson (Labour) in the House of Commons on Monday, 2 March 2026. It occurred during Ministerial statement on Middle East.


Middle East

I thank the Prime Minister for his measured response so far. I have spoken to former constituents and friends who are British expats in the UAE. While they feel confident that the local Government there are doing all that they can to protect them, for clarity, will they too be considered for evacuation by the FCDO should it become necessary?
