DEPICTION OF MANCHESTER CATHEDRAL IN A VIOLENT VIDEO GAME
Early day motion 1698, tabled 14 June 2007 by Keith Vaz (Labour). Signed by 36 members.
That this House deplores the realistic depictions of the interior of Manchester Cathedral in a violent video game produced by Sony; notes that Sony had not obtained permission for the depiction of the Cathedral; further notes the offence caused to the Christian worshippers and the people of Manchester; supports the comments of the Prime Minister that game companies should recognise their wider social responsibilities to the community; and urges Sony to withdraw this game and offer some form of compensation to Church charities.
