Conduct Of The Prime Minister And The Scottish Claim Of Right

EDM number 266 in 2007-08, proposed by Philip Davies on 14/11/2007.
Categorised under the topics of Central government and Ministers.

That this House recognises that the Prime Minister is a signatory to the Scottish Claim of Right in which he declared and pledged that in all his actions and deliberations the interests of the Scottish people `shall be paramount'; believes that by declaring that the interests of the Scottish people should come first he has committed himself to discriminating against the people of England, Wales and Northern Ireland; considers this to be incompatible with being the Prime Minister of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland in which office the interests of all UK people should be equal; and calls on him publicly to disassociate himself from and withdraw from the Scottish Claim of Right.

This motion has been signed by a total of 11 MPs.
