In a letter in the The Guardian our Chair, Kishwer Falkner, highlights how we take our independence "incredibly seriously" in response to recent criticism. theguardian.com/society/2021/j…

I voted today on a Trade Bill amendment to ensure that parliament, not a committee of retired judges should decide if a trading partner is committing genocide - it’s the responsibility of us parliamentarians and shouldn’t be outsourced, my speech is here: hansard.parliament.uk/search/MemberC…



Just to clarify that I meant to say that we don’t have a right not to be offended. Conflicting views are part of healthy discourse!Thanks Stephen Pollard for pointing this out.
