Motion text

That this House is appalled that Augusto Pinochet, dictator of Chile from 1973 to 1990, is due to be sworn in as Senator for Life; recalls his horrific regime during which the elected President Salvador Allende was murdered as were thousands of his supporters and that many more were forced into exile; sympathises with the many Chilean people who lost loved ones and want to find out the truth; and wishes the peaceful demonstrations for human rights on 11th March well.
