Petition Trade Justice 11 pm Mr. Michael Weir (Angus) Many hon. Members will have been lobbied by the Trade Justice Movement within the past few weeks. I was lobbied by the Arbroath fair trade group and presented with this petition, together with supporting cards collected by our local churches, St. Andrews and St. Vigean's in Arbroath. The petition reads: To the House of CommonsThe Petition of the Constituents of AngusDeclares that they have great concerns about the imbalance in world trade and wish to see Trade Justice at the top of the Agenda at the Cancun summit.The Petitioners therefore request that the House of Commons ensures that the UK government takes a lead in international trade negotiations to 1. Stop forcing poor countries to open their markets; and champion their right to manage their own economies2. Regulate big business and their investments to ensure people and the environment come before profit3. Stop rich countries promoting the interests of big business through trade interventions that harm the poor and the environmentEnsure trade policy is made in a fair, transparent and democratic way.And the Petitioners remain, etc. To lie upon the Table.
