Anti-Semitism

Debate between Lord Clarke of Hampstead and Lord Bourne of Aberystwyth

Tuesday 26th June 2018 Lords Chamber

[Lord Bourne of Aberystwyth]

My Lords, I am unaware of the specifics that the noble Baroness mentions, but based on what she has just said: absolutely. It is abominable that anybody should be singled out on the basis of race or religion. All discrimination is wrong, and I wholeheartedly endorse what she has said.

[Lord Clarke of Hampstead (Lab)]

My Lords, does the Minister agree with me in welcoming the visit made yesterday by Prince William to Yad Vashem Holocaust Memorial in Jerusalem? Does he further agree that Prince William’s desire to go to the other side and talk to Palestinian people to try to get some understanding can only be a good thing for the future of both states?

[Lord Bourne of Aberystwyth]

Entirely, my Lords; I wholeheartedly agree.
