YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

As Iceland's parliament debates whether to outlaw circumcision in children, BBC Newsnight asks whether the practice is a violation or a religious right. Emily Maitlis puts the question to Jonathan Arkush, the president of the Board of Deputies of British Jews, and Dr Antony Lempert, a GP and chair of the Secular Medical Forum.

Newsnight is the BBC's flagship news and current affairs TV programme - with analysis, debate, exclusives, and robust interviews.
