Vote in parliament today. Come on MPs.
Hugely disappointing that MPs voted down the #GenocideAmendment tonight. Standing with Uyghurs is a moral imperative, and one that the public wishes to see happen, and it is shameful that Conservative MP have failed to do so
A Plea from Survivor of the Bosnian Genocide, Safet Vukalic
Hear why Safet Vukalic BEM says the #GenocideAmendment must be passed.
Amendment from Nus Ghani MP has been selected by the Speaker which provides a straight vote on the #GenocideAmendment
Genocide is the crime of all crimes and the UK must offer a beacon of hope to those who suffer. I hope MP’s will vote for the amendment, to give them that hope.
Hear what our founder, CEO and survivor of the 1994 #GenocideAgainstTutsi in Rwanda Eric E Murangwa MBE thinks about the #GenocideAmendment and why it must be passed. #LessonsFromRwanda 👇

29 Conservative MPs rebelled to support Nus Ghani MP's Amendment (a) to the Trade Bill Consideration, to support the Lords Amendment on the #GenocideAmendment .
#GenocideAmendment might have fallen but there’s now a new process for scrutinising how UK trades w/states implicated in genocide. It doesn’t dilute government responsibility to act comprehensively on atrocities but increases it—AND invests new powers in Parliament. It’s big.🇬🇧🕊
