Clydebank-Built Queen Elizabeth 2

EDM number 233 in 2016-17, proposed by Martin Docherty on 15/06/2016.
Categorised under the topic of Shipping.

That this House recognises the illustrious history of the Clydebank-built ship Queen Elizabeth 2; congratulates the shipbuilders of John Brown's shipyards in constructing such an iconic vessel, which has sailed over five million miles around the world over her 49-year history; notes the current plight of the ship, which now sits unused and neglected in Port Rashid in Dubai; and acknowledges the wastefulness in allowing such a magnificent ship to go to rust and ruin, and that she could be put to far better use berthed permanently at her true home in Clydebank.

This motion has been signed by a total of 25 MPs.
