asked Her Majesty's Government:

Whether they consider that the treatment of prisoners of war and terrorist suspects, by all allied states, should reflect their commitment to due process of law, impartial justice and democratic values. [HL555]

Yes. We expect all states to abide by their international legal obligations.
