PAISLEY COMRADES CLUB - 2019 CENTENARY YEAR

Early day motion 2539, tabled 25 June 2019 by Gavin Newlands (Scottish National Party). Signed by 10 members.

That this House welcomes the 100th anniversary of the Paisley Comrades branch of the Royal British Legion; recognises its founding in May 1919 by nine survivors of World War One meeting in Paisley, growing by June of that year to a branch of over 100 members; notes that the Paisley Comrades branch pre-dates even the Royal British Legion itself; welcomes the support, help, and companionship provided by the Comrades to former service personnel over the past century; and wishes the Comrades well in their next 100 years of supporting Renfrewshire's ex-service men and women.
