Detainee Mistreatment and Rendition

Lord Blunkett Excerpts

Monday 2nd July 2018 Lords Chamber

[Baroness Goldie]

Yes, I am sure the noble Lord’s observations will be heard. I entirely endorse his comments with regard to our security and intelligence services. The professionalism and commitment which is demonstrated by the members of those services is outstanding and exemplary and this country owes them a huge debt of gratitude. Our safety and our future stability depend upon them.

[Lord Blunkett (Lab)]

My Lords, I declare an interest—

[Lord Taylor of Holbeach (Con)]

My Lords, I apologise for interrupting the noble Lord but we usually have 10 minutes for a Urgent Question repeated from the other place. Those 10 minutes are up, and we have other business to transact.
