However, I am so pleased that my application for a backbench business debate on deaths abroad and consular services has been accepted, and we hope to get a date before Xmas in the main Commons chamber. You can watch my plea and evidence here ? https://t.co/W0d7Ib7AeU 2/

Today I made a bid to the backbench business committee to have a debate on deaths abroad and consular protection, this is why? British Citizens are not afforded the very basic protections promised on their passports. https://t.co/UoZ16u2qrZ

In reality British Citizens don not have the legal right to consular assistance as the UK prioritises trade deals over their human rights.The APPG on Deaths Abroad, Consular Service and Assistance 2019 report states this and continues to lobby for change https://t.co/WnedKMjrlF https://t.co/wiRxv5qWDx
