DEDICATION OF CARRIAGE GATES TO PC KEITH PALMER

Early day motion 938, tabled 20 February 2018 by Matt Western (Labour). Signed by 133 members.

That this House believes that the Carriage Gates should be named the Palmer Gates, to commemorate the life and professional service of PC Keith Palmer and to mark his gallantry and ultimate sacrifice in putting his life before those he courageously sought to defend; acknowledges its profound gratitude to PC Keith Palmer and to all members of the police and security services who place themselves in the defence of the public and of democracy; and calls on the House of Commons Commission to consider commemorating the naming of the gates on 22 March 2018.

Signatures by party: Labour 70, Conservative 22, Scottish National Party 16, Labour/Co-operative 9, DUP 6, Liberal Democrat 5, Plaid Cymru 3, Independent 2.
