Ladywood PPC Lee Dargue renews his call for an immediate ceasefire
Speaking on the chaotic scenes from Parliament last night, Liberal Democrat prospective parliamentary candidate for Birmingham Ladywood in the upcoming general election, Lee Dargue, said:
"Regardless of the embarrassing scenes in the House of Commons last night, one thing remains true - Birmingham Ladywood still has only an abstention on its record in Parliament in regard to a ceasefire in Gaza.
"Myself and the Liberal Democrats are steadfast in the need for an immediate, bilateral ceasefire, with a 2-state solution, securing peace for Israel and a recognised state of Palestine.
"Many people I've spoken to in Ladywood are horrified that we don't have clear political direction at the moment, in calling for an immediate ceasefire - I remain on record in offering that leadership."
