THE CHRISTIAN CHURCH AT CHRISTMAS

Early day motion 1917, tabled 11 December 2018 by Jim Shannon (DUP). Signed by 19 members.

That this House expresses sincere thankfulness that we live in a country which allows us to celebrate the birth of Jesus and Christmas; considers those states in which to even whisper the name of Jesus would mean death; prays for those who can only celebrate Christmas in their heart; and affirms the dedication of this House to seek to influence by any diplomatic means possible, any state which continues to permit the persecution of Christians based solely on their love of Jesus.

Signatures by party: DUP 10, Labour 4, Conservative 2, Scottish National Party 2, Independent 1.
