Deportation To Iraq (EDM2051)

Deportation To Iraq

EDM number 2051 in 2008-09, proposed by John McDonnell on 14/10/2009.
Categorised under the topics of Immigration and Iraq.

That this House is alarmed at reports that over the last week, detainees in various immigration detention centres have been given removal directions that state they will be removed to Iraq and that the first deportation charter flight to southern Iraq was expected to leave on 14 October 2009; is concerned about the violence and bloodshed that continues to blight Iraq along with the widespread food shortages and lack of access to clean drinking water; deplores the deportation of innocent people to face violence, hardship and even death in a war zone like Iraq; and therefore calls for the deportation of Iraqi refugees to Iraq to be halted and for the Iraqi detainees threatened with forcible removal to be released immediately.

This motion has been signed by a total of 32 MPs.
