Ahead of Red Noise day this Friday, Parmjit Singh Gill, Member of Parliament for Leicester South, has tabled an Early Day Motion in Parliament, which has provided an opportunity for all Members of Parliament to formally voice their support the activities being organised for the 20th Anniversary of Comic Relief, and Red Noise Day 2005. The EDM has already received cross party support from over forty other Members of Parliament.
Yesterday in Westminster, Parmjit Singh Gill, Member of Parliament for Leicester South, met with Fairtrade Cocoa farmers from Western Ghana. The farmers are currently touring different venues in London as part of the national Fairtrade Fortnight 2005 (1st-13th March). The theme of this years fortnight is 'Check Out Fairtrade' which aims to make a direct link between cocoa growers and UK chocolate lovers, and give a compelling reason to switch to Fairtrade products in supermarkets and food stores.
Commenting on the reports that the US has proposed a 45 day delay in any decision by the United Nations on Darfur, Parmjit Singh Gill, Member of Parliament for Leicester South, said:
The Liberal Democrat plan commits to making the UK a global leader in animal welfare through stronger standards, workforce investment, and ethical farming practices.
Only the Liberal Democrats will stand up to Trump, invest in the UK’s security, support Ukraine, hold back Russia, deepen our ties with European and commonwealth partners, and stand up for liberal, British values.
As liberals, we believe that true equality is achieved when individuals are not only free from prejudice and discrimination, but also free to fulfil their potential. So fighting for LGBTQ+ rights is not a choice Liberals make.
