1
00:00:00,030 --> 00:00:06,210
so if labor members especially leading

2
00:00:03,060 --> 00:00:10,830
ones want to have a debate on Kashmir

3
00:00:06,210 --> 00:00:17,369
all they have to do is tell me is no

4
00:00:10,830 --> 00:00:21,480
magic if Hillary Bend can persuade the

5
00:00:17,369 --> 00:00:24,539
labor front match to give over cavity of

6
00:00:21,480 --> 00:00:29,650
their opposition day to the subject of

7
00:00:24,539 --> 00:00:32,059
Kashmir all they have to do is English

8
00:00:29,650 --> 00:00:34,649
[Applause]

9
00:00:32,059 --> 00:00:36,480
lightly else me when I hear people are

10
00:00:34,649 --> 00:00:39,510
in a position to have intimated

11
00:00:36,480 --> 00:00:42,329
in Parliament call for it to be debated

12
00:00:39,510 --> 00:00:45,149
and follow as if you could make a happen

13
00:00:42,329 --> 00:00:49,649
in Parliament and they could not that

14
00:00:45,149 --> 00:00:52,649
the offices is true secondly it's not

15
00:00:49,649 --> 00:00:58,350
peace that were struggling for its

16
00:00:52,649 --> 00:01:02,000
justice no judges no peace you see

17
00:00:58,350 --> 00:01:04,890
India's in favour of peace in Kashmir

18
00:01:02,000 --> 00:01:07,950
the Boers were in favor of this is a

19
00:01:04,890 --> 00:01:18,150
Lopaka here in the israelis are in

20
00:01:07,950 --> 00:01:23,340
favour of peace in Palestine the price

21
00:01:18,150 --> 00:01:25,860
of these which is just so we can be

22
00:01:23,340 --> 00:01:29,640
disinterested observers we are calling

23
00:01:25,860 --> 00:01:31,740
for peace calling for negotiations like

24
00:01:29,640 --> 00:01:36,990
we haven't been calling for them these

25
00:01:31,740 --> 00:01:40,259
last 60 years on get ears we have to

26
00:01:36,990 --> 00:01:42,360
make a stand for justice there is no

27
00:01:40,259 --> 00:01:45,360
reward in this life for behaving in an

28
00:01:42,360 --> 00:01:48,450
unprincipled man there might be no

29
00:01:45,360 --> 00:01:51,110
short-tailed reward but in the end and

30
00:01:48,450 --> 00:01:56,729
on the last day there will be a reward

31
00:01:51,110 --> 00:02:00,450
so it falls to us to take aside and we

32
00:01:56,729 --> 00:02:04,000
can be on both sides you can't be with

33
00:02:00,450 --> 00:02:11,920
the occupier and the occupier you can't

34
00:02:04,000 --> 00:02:16,840
I want to go took my son with the

35
00:02:11,920 --> 00:02:20,970
oppressed in Kashmir as else well His

36
00:02:16,840 --> 00:02:26,830
Excellency the High Commissioner and I

37
00:02:20,970 --> 00:02:31,810
fought in the 1990s to win the Labour

38
00:02:26,830 --> 00:02:34,750
Party of which I was then a member we

39
00:02:31,810 --> 00:02:38,020
fought to win the Labour Party to a

40
00:02:34,750 --> 00:02:39,970
policy position of support for the

41
00:02:38,020 --> 00:02:44,200
rights of the people of Kashmir for

42
00:02:39,970 --> 00:02:46,810
self-determination a cost ways when

43
00:02:44,200 --> 00:02:50,230
Robin Cook went to the lake God rest his

44
00:02:46,810 --> 00:02:53,350
soul Robin Cook went to India there was

45
00:02:50,230 --> 00:02:55,930
a huge scandal about it because we have

46
00:02:53,350 --> 00:02:58,690
just persuaded the Labour Party

47
00:02:55,930 --> 00:03:01,540
conference to past with sculptural

48
00:02:58,690 --> 00:03:02,670
resolution that record resolution is

49
00:03:01,540 --> 00:03:06,640
still extant

50
00:03:02,670 --> 00:03:09,010
no resolution has countermanded it it is

51
00:03:06,640 --> 00:03:11,920
still the Labour Party's policy to

52
00:03:09,010 --> 00:03:16,239
demand self-determination for the people

53
00:03:11,920 --> 00:03:18,940
of Kashmir and they need to be pushed to

54
00:03:16,239 --> 00:03:22,810
resurrect it to dust it down because

55
00:03:18,940 --> 00:03:25,989
this story is littered with texts that

56
00:03:22,810 --> 00:03:28,600
God of dust and finally can no longer we

57
00:03:25,989 --> 00:03:31,959
see they have been sitting on the shelf

58
00:03:28,600 --> 00:03:35,140
for so long and that is one of them so

59
00:03:31,959 --> 00:03:37,570
we have a petition going on now

60
00:03:35,140 --> 00:03:40,030
if that petition were between a hundred

61
00:03:37,570 --> 00:03:42,430
thousand signatures it would

62
00:03:40,030 --> 00:03:45,220
automatically provoke a debate

63
00:03:42,430 --> 00:03:47,470
unfortunately possibly not on the floor

64
00:03:45,220 --> 00:03:49,450
of the house but in Westminster Hall

65
00:03:47,470 --> 00:03:52,360
which is still technically Parliament

66
00:03:49,450 --> 00:03:55,440
but doesn't quite have the same theatre

67
00:03:52,360 --> 00:03:59,019
now a hundred thousand pounds daunting

68
00:03:55,440 --> 00:04:01,510
but I was a part of an effort just

69
00:03:59,019 --> 00:04:03,630
recently to get a hundred thousand

70
00:04:01,510 --> 00:04:06,610
signatures and they are fallen to be

71
00:04:03,630 --> 00:04:09,459
everybody has to get hundreds if not

72
00:04:06,610 --> 00:04:11,110
thousands of people to sign it and if

73
00:04:09,459 --> 00:04:13,540
you do will have taken another step

74
00:04:11,110 --> 00:04:16,930
forward from this magnificent gathering

75
00:04:13,540 --> 00:04:24,600
here today what's alarming

76
00:04:16,930 --> 00:04:24,600
[Applause]
