Posted on Thursday, December 10th, 2015

Today, on International Human Rights Day, Backbench MPs will debate the following motion:

‘This House has Considered the Protection and Promotion of Human Rights Across the World on International Human Rights Day’.

It is the first debate on human rights during this government so it was an important opportunity to have the Jewish voice heard. Have a look at the letter we wrote to MPs below.
