India: Persecution of Minority Groups

Proceeding contribution from Barry Gardiner (Labour) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 12 January 2021. It occurred during Debate on India: Persecution of Minority Groups.

I do not doubt for a moment that we should be engaged in foreign affairs, and we have the right to debate what we wish in this House. I did not suggest otherwise; what I did say was that we should always do so with a sense of humility and appropriateness, and in this particular case, remembering that we were a colonial power that was engaged in pitting one section of the community against the other for over 200 years.
