MR DAVID IRVING'S LIBEL CASE

EDM number 634 in 1999-00, proposed by Mike Gapes on 11/04/2000.

That this House congratulates Professor Deborah Lipstadt and Penguin books on their victory in the David Irving libel case; welcomes the verdict of Mr Justice Charles Gray and his opinion that Irving is a racist, anti-Semite and holocaust denier; and believes that the result of this case proves that Irving is not a respectable outspoken historian but a Hitler partisan who distorts history to fit in with his own preconceived ideology.

This motion has been signed by a total of 55 MPs.
