TWENTIETH ANNIVERSARY OF DEATH OF BILL HICKS

Early day motion 1107, tabled 24 February 2014 by Steve Pound (Labour). Signed by 10 members.

That this House notes with deep sadness the twentieth anniversary of the death of Bill Hicks, on 26 February 2014; and salutes a man who used comedy as a weapon to assault the pomposity, arrogance and crass materialism of his age and whose every recorded and written word is a reminder of how brightly his genius burned, how dark is the world without that scorching light and how much his uncompromising honesty will be forever missed.

Signatures by party: Labour 9, DUP 1.
