Sir Oliver has raised his concerns over the lack of protests against Iran murdering its own citizens and the contrast with the approach to Israel.
He asked a question to the Foreign Office Minister following an Urgent Question on the matter.
Oliver said: "Within hours of the Hamas massacres, protesters and marchers were organising against Israel. And yet here we are, weeks later, when the Iranian regime is murdering and torturing its citizens by the tens of thousands, still no marches, still no protests. What does the Minister think that says about the prejudices of such activists?"
The Minister responded: "I know the Honourable Gentleman, the former Deputy Prime Minister, pays great attention to developments in the region. He will know that there have been protests outside the Iranian Embassy and very disturbing counter-protests in support of the crackdown of the regime. I find anyone expressing that view on the streets of Britain absolutely staggering in the face of the horrors that we're seeing."
