GEORGE BEST'S FUNERAL

EDM number 1219 in 2005-06, proposed by Gregory Campbell on 07/12/2005.

That this House recognises the dignity and solemnity the family of George Best demonstrated at his funeral in Belfast; and acknowledges the superb response the people of Northern Ireland and beyond offered during what has been widely recognised as a fitting tribute to someone whom many regard as the finest footballer ever to emerge from the United Kingdom.

This motion has been signed by a total of 26 MPs.
