REMEMBERING EDMUND DENE MOREL MP

That this House commemorates 140 years since the birth of E D Morel, the 17th hon. Member for Dundee, who led the international campaign against the abject abuses in the Congo by King Leopold II of Belgium at the turn of the last century; pays homage to his dedication to the Congo Reform Association and his early work in championing human rights for all; commends the Save the Congo campaign for establishing the Morel Prize to keep his extraordinary legacy alive and congratulates the two inaugural winners of the 2013 Morel Prize, the former Lord Bishop of Winchester, the Reverend Michael Scott-Joynt and V-Day founder Eve Ensler for their role in defending the Congolese people in recent years; and calls on the Government to establish a memorial in E D Morel's memory.
