WAR HEROES STAMP (No. 2)

Early day motion 1690, tabled 13 June 2007 by Paul Flynn (Labour). Signed by 19 members.

That this House notes the Government's refusal to support the proposal to issue commemorative stamps displaying the work of war artist Stephen McQueen on Veterans' Day, because that day's events are celebratory; and believes that the work, Queen and Country, which depicts photographs of 98 British soldiers killed in Iraq, printed in a stamp format, should be used for a commemorative issue on Remembrance Day to respect the wishes of the artist and the loved ones of the fallen soldiers and to provide a powerful reminder of the true cost of war.

Signatures by party: Labour 13, Liberal Democrat 5, Independent 1.
