(The debate took place in Westminster Hall, not the House of Commons.)

I don't think he spoke in the commons, I saw a short clip of him speaking on 'The Record' and it was in a hall. Like the place where they have committees. I can't get this video to play on my mac:

He should be there.

Edit: David beat me to it...

when is he gonna be in the house of commons responding to his 18-day ban? I heard he gets unlimited time, that should be a corker!

Unlimited time to GG! It will be a firestorm- talking about backfire, big time!!

I wouldn't expect him to talk for more than two hours. Apparently his voice gets a bit weak after that.

Who will be there to hear him? Will certain MPs be forced to listen, or can they all just get bored and walk out, considering their attitude towards George in the first place?

Unless they're 'whipped' they don't have to attend at all.

Oh well. I don't suppose it matters one bit how few other MPs are present, because his real audience will be the world

Interesting will be who actually votes .. if they don't attend and hear the speech, it would be another point against the MPs who do eventually vote.

And if GG is banned with v. few votes against (by a small pro-Israeli set of MPs), then that itself would be extra "points" for GG to present.

Watching any of the pro-Israeli MPs faces whilst GG is making his on-air speech is something money can't buy.

It'll be something neither money, oil nor food could buy! I can't wait!
