Zarah Sultana: Lammy claim he did not know about Palestine Action hunger strikers is a ‘lie’

British MP Zarah Sultana has accused Justice Secretary David Lammy of lying about his lack of knowledge concerning a hunger strike by eight Palestine Action-affiliated prisoners. Sultana's comments followed her visit to one of the prisoners, who has been on a hunger strike for 38 days. The prisoners are demanding immediate bail, an end to prison interference with their communications, and the de-proscription of the Palestine Action group. Lammy was confronted by campaigners and claimed he was unaware of the situation, a statement Sultana refutes by saying she had previously written to him about the issue.
