Thank you, Mr Speaker. What is happening in the Middle East is a tragedy, as are other conflicts right across the globe, many of which receive little or no recognition. Thousands of people are being killed and injured right across the Middle East. Families are being separated and displaced. There is forced hunger and a lack of basic services. Trying to condense this debate into a slogan, strapline or social media clip just to promote a political stance is to use the suffering of those very same people for selfish purposes.
