Ian Gibson MP on civil liberties in Britain:
Davis has a good argument. You can call it a stunt or a gimmick, but there is a serious side to this. I'm quite happy to join in.
Ian Gibson is chairman of the All Party Parliamentary Group on Cuba and one of the Cuban regime's leading apologists.
Human Rights Watch on Cuba:
Cuba remains a Latin American anomaly: an undemocratic government that represses nearly all forms of political dissent.
Ian Gibson on Cuban human rights:
The Foreign Office explains it "cannot have normal relations with Cuba" due to human-rights concerns. Amnesty International claims that 72 prisoners of conscience are detained in Cuban jails, an allegation rejected by the Cuban government, which argues that all were tried and found guilty of being in the pay of an enemy power - the US.
Stephen Pollard on Ian Gibson:
Loathsome hypocrite.
