Mr Nicholas Davies

EDM number 47 in 1991-92, proposed by George Galloway on 31/10/1991.

That this House notes that following the tabling of Early Day Motion number 1284 in the last Session standing in the name of the honourable Member for Glasgow, Hillhead, the Daily Mirror has dismissed Mr Davies from his 30 years' employment with Mirror Group Newspapers; notes that Mr Davies has been shown to have pursued arms deals of considerable dimensions over several years and several continents while masquerading as a reputable British journalist; notes that Mr Davies pursued these arms deals in concert with Mr Ari Ben-Menashe who, during that period served in the Israeli Defence Forces with 'great responsibility, expertise and dedication down to the finest detail' according to the IDF testimonials dated September 1987 and now in the possession of the honourable Member for Glasgow, Hillhead; recognises that Mr Davies has now been unmasked as a brazen liar; and consequently calls upon Mr Robert Maxwell, Publisher of Mirror Group Newspapers, to immediately establish the independent inquiry into these issues, first called for in Early Day Motion number 1284 of last Session.

This motion has been signed by a total of 2 MPs.
