Recognition of the State of Palestine Alongside the State of Israel — 13 Oct 2014 at 21:56

The majority of MPs voted in favour of recognising the state of Palestine alongside the state of Israel as a contribution to securing a negotiated two state solution.

The motion approved by the majority of MPs was:

  • That this House believes that the Government should recognise the state of Palestine alongside the state of Israel as a contribution to securing a negotiated two state solution.

The the latter words: "as a contribution to securing a negotiated two state solution" were introduced[1] as an amendment during the debate and accepted unopposed[2].

Following the vote Jeremy Corbyn raised a point of order to state[3]:

"If I may, I will briefly explain why I and my hon. Friend Mike Wood were tellers for a position that we do not actually hold. It was to ensure that democracy could take place and that Members could record their vote, because those who were opposed to the motion declined to put up tellers. We have thus ensured democracy here tonight."
