MICHAEL FOOT

Early day motion 1475, tabled 19 June 2002 by Lord Cryer (Labour). Signed by 97 members.

That this House congratulates Michael Foot on his approaching 89th birthday; recognises his integrity, compassion and decency and his record as an outstanding parliamentarian, journalist, author and, above all, socialist; and believes that a fitting tribute to the former Labour leader would be the commissioning of a statue to be placed within the Palace of Westminster.

Signatures by party: Labour 86, Labour/Co-operative 7, Liberal Democrat 4.
