ROYAL BRITISH LEGION

Early day motion 162, tabled 20 November 2006 by Lindsay Hoyle (Labour). Signed by 104 members.

That this House notes the services of remembrance which took place on 11th November across the United Kingdom; recognises the sacrifice made by millions of people who have lost their lives, not only during the two world wars, but in other conflicts and peace-keeping operations across the world; pays tribute to the Royal British Legion and the Poppy Appeal, which acts as a poignant reminder of the loss of life suffered and helps raise much-needed funds to allow the Legion to carry out its important work; and urges everyone to support the Royal British Legion, which helps support veterans and their families in many different ways.

Signatures by party: Labour 49, Conservative 28, Liberal Democrat 19, DUP 7, UUP 1.
