BRITISH TOURISM AND THE CALGARY STAMPEDE

Early day motion 1911, tabled 14 June 2011 by Adrian Sanders (Liberal Democrat). Signed by 11 members.

That this House is deeply concerned by the Calgary Stampede, to be held between 8 and 17 July 2011; believes that any attention paid to the rodeo will gloss over the cruelty of the spectacle; notes that in Great Britain rodeo events have been illegal since 1934; and urges UK citizens not to attend the event.

Signatures by party: Labour 5, Liberal Democrat 5, Green 1.
