John McDonnell
Zarah Sultana
Claudia WebbeMs Diane AbbottJeremy CorbynIan ByrneKate OsamorMick WhitleyRebecca Long Bailey
That this House declines to give a Second Reading to the Overseas Operations (Service Personnel and Veterans) Bill because it violates essential rule of law principles such as judicial and prosecutorial independence and the absolute and effective prohibition of torture.
Amendment
Stewart Malcolm McDonald
Carol Monaghan
Joanna Cherry
That this House declines to give a Second Reading to the Overseas Operations (Service Personnel and Veterans) Bill because the Bill undermines the internationally agreed rules of warfare and the system of international law which the UK Government helped to create, will likely encourage copycat legislation in foreign countries which would undermine the whole system of international law on the battlefield and therefore make members of the UK armed forces and non-combatant civilians less safe in conflict zones, strengthens the power of the executive over the legislature and is a wholly unsuitable solution to the issue of historical claims against members of the armed forces.
