Protests in Bangladesh

Early day motion 45, tabled 22 July 2024 by Ayoub Khan (Independent). Signed by 7 members.

That this House condemns in the strongest of terms the intolerance shown by the Bangladeshi government to the right of protest and dissent, including the unlawful use of force against protesters which has so far killed hundreds; further condemns the withdrawal of internet across the country in response to the protests; and calls upon the Bangladeshi government to restore internet, cease the violent crackdown on protests, and uphold their obligations under both domestic and international human rights law.

Signatures by party: Independent 3, Green 2, DUP 1, Labour/Co-operative 1.
