BETHLEHEM AND BANKSY

Early day motion 450, tabled 3 December 2007 by Gerald Kaufman (Labour). Signed by 36 members.

That this House welcomes the decoration of the illegal Israeli wall strangling Bethlehem by the graffiti artist Banksy; and points out that his satirical depiction of the oppressive burdens on the inhabitants of the Holy City and the remainder of the occupied West Bank, as well as the Gaza Strip, including poverty, deprivation and mass unemployment, inflicted by harsh Israeli occupation, is a far more accurate illustration of life in the Holy Land today than the smug travel posters for Israel issued by the present Israeli government.

Signatures by party: Labour 24, Liberal Democrat 5, Conservative 2, Scottish National Party 2, Social Democratic and Labour Party 2, Plaid Cymru 1.
