Tory MP mocks Saudi human rights allegations

LEFT MP Katy Clark sparked an odious performance from Tory MP Daniel Kawczynski today when she attacked “appalling” human rights abuses in Saudi Arabia.

Ms Clark launched a Westminster debate to demand that the British government must protest against jailings of human rights activists and the oppression of women and migrant workers.

But a sneering Mr Kawczynski chided her for “making all these allegations about human rights abuses.”
