Liz signs letter to Prime Minister asking for protection for Nazanin Zaghari-Ratcliffe

Nazanin Zaghari-Ratcliffe is a British-Iranian woman being held in Tehran and facing terrible human rights abuses. The UK Government seems to have lost any semblance of control over Nazanin’s case, and there is now chaos at a time when she needs competence and determination.

That is why I recently co-signed a letter to the Prime Minister calling on him to make Nazanin’s case a priority. The letter asks the Government to work with international allies at the UN, and to use the robust protections at its disposal to ensure an end to this appalling practice.

You can read the full letter here, and you can find out more about Nazanin’s case here.
