Release Of Nelson Mandela

EDM number 518 in 1989-90, proposed by Robert Hughes on 12/02/1990.

That this House sends its warmest greetings to Nelson Mandela on the occasion of his release after 27 years of imprisonment; salutes his courage and integrity which has inspired all opponents of apartheid; recognises his release and other recent developments in South Africa are the result of internal and external pressures; welcomes his historic speech in Cape Town which sets out anew his vision of a united, non-racial and democratic South Africa and supports fully Mr Mandela's call for the struggle against apartheid to be intensified; endorses his appeal to maintain sanctions and other forms of pressures; and calls upon Her Majesty's Government to abandon its totally misguided efforts to lift sanctions.

This motion has been signed by a total of 127 MPs, 1 of these signatures have been withdrawn.
