TANKER DRIVERS' DISPUTE
EDM number 1761 in 2007-08, proposed by John McDonnell on 11/06/2008.

That this House regrets that Government sources this week have threatened the use of emergency powers against striking tanker drivers, who are members of Unite, including through the drafting-in of soldiers to drive tankers for oil companies; and believes that this inflammatory threat sets back the process of achieving a negotiated settlement in this dispute.
