Debate on the Address

Proceeding contribution from John Bercow (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 22 November 2006. It occurred during Queen's speech debate on Debate on the Address.
The Foreign Secretary has been characteristically generous in giving way. Earlier, the Prime Minister spoke about the need to take a look at the proposal to construct a no-fly zone over Darfur. However, given that that proposal was originally endorsed by the United Nations as long ago as 2004, and that with every day that passes without that protection we witnesses an increase in the number of dead, dying and destitute in the region, does the right hon. Lady not agree that it is imperative that much greater urgency is attached to the matter, and that the zone is established quickly and enforced regularly so that people receive the protection that they need?
