Sporting Recognition For Armed Services

EDM number 547 in 2013-14, proposed by Gregory Campbell on 09/10/2013.
Categorised under the topics of Armed forces and Sports.

That this House recognises the number of events held by a range of sporting organisations to respect and offer appreciation to the armed services; is deeply appreciative of the work that the UK's soldiers, sailors and airforce personnel do on an ongoing basis; and expresses the hope that, as Remembrance Day approaches, all sporting bodies and institutions will join the widespread and heartfelt acknowledgement that the freedom we currently enjoy, including the right to object and protest, is down to the efforts of those service personnel over many decades who have preserved that freedom.

This motion has been signed by a total of 13 MPs.
