The Second George Bell lecture was held at Lambeth Palace Library (16 October 2023) and was organised by the George Bell Fund and Barnabas Aid. The event was sponsored by St Martin’s Episcopal Church, Houston.
Lord Alton challenged the audience during a Q & A to lobby candidates of all the parties as they plan their policies before next year’s General Election, to make Genocide Determination by a UK Court a manifesto commitment. He argued that consumers should be empowered by the labelling of all goods from the Peoples’ Republic of China, made by slave labour and manufactured in a state accused by the House of Commons of Genocide.
