LIVERPOOL FANS TICKET PROTEST
Early day motion 1080, tabled 8 February 2016 by John Pugh (Liberal Democrat). Signed by 21 members.
That this House supports the protests made by Liverpool Football Club supporters in response to ticket prices showing little regard to or respect for the club's loyal fanbase; recognises that football clubs are not simply large businesses intent on maximising shareholder value but are part of the life and soul of their community; and urges hon. Members to seek further engagement with all stakeholders including supporters' groups across the land to see what can be done to prevent professional football outcomes being entirely determined by money and economic interest.
Signatures by party: Labour 9, Liberal Democrat 4, DUP 3, Labour/Co-operative 2, Conservative 1, Plaid Cymru 1, Scottish National Party 1.
