Bethlehem And Banksy (EDM450)

Bethlehem And Banksy

EDM number 450 in 2007-08, proposed by Gerald Kaufman on 03/12/2007.
Categorised under the topics of Art works and Middle East.

That this House welcomes the decoration of the illegal Israeli wall strangling Bethlehem by the graffiti artist Banksy; and points out that his satirical depiction of the oppressive burdens on the inhabitants of the Holy City and the remainder of the occupied West Bank, as well as the Gaza Strip, including poverty, deprivation and mass unemployment, inflicted by harsh Israeli occupation, is a far more accurate illustration of life in the Holy Land today than the smug travel posters for Israel issued by the present Israeli government.

This motion has been signed by a total of 36 MPs.
