“It is for judges and the judiciary to have the time and reflection to make their considerations and it is for the politicians to step back and respect them in that process”. -Lammy
Middle East Eye: UK member of parliament, Melanie Ward, welcomed Foreign Secretary David Lammy's announcement that the UK government will restore funding to the UN agency for Palestinian refugees (Unrwa). Ward called for an immediate ceasefire in Gaza and urged the foreign secretary to support the work of the International Criminal Court (ICC) and the International Court of Justice (ICJ). Lammy responded that he believes “in the separation of powers”, saying: “It is for judges and the judiciary to have the time and reflection to make their considerations and it is for the politicians to step back and respect them in that process”.
