Mark Lazarowicz MP (Labour/Co-operative, Edinburgh North and Leith) supports We Stand With Shaker, and says, of the failure to secure Shaker Aamer’s release from ‪‬Guantánamo, “We need to be told what the barrier to progress is rather than the Government simply saying this is in the hands of the US – the Government should be pressing the US much harder to resolve this.”

Mark is also a member of the Shaker Aamer Parliamentary Group, chaired by John McDonnell MP, who wrote a letter calling for Shaker’s release that was published in the Guardian in December. Many members spoke in the Parliamentary debate on 17 March 2015. And here’s the most recent list of MPs in the group. If yours isn’t here, please ask them to join.
