Occupation of the Channel Islands during the Second World War

Early day motion 588, tabled 26 October 2021 by Andrew Rosindell (Conservative). Signed by 10 members.

That this House remembers the generation of people who lived on the Channel Islands during their occupation by the Nazis from 1940 to 1945; recognises the importance of erecting a civilian memorial to the individuals that lived through this awful period in the history of the islands; thanks the Jersey Occupation Civilian Campaign for reporting the names of the 2000 Channel Islanders that were deported to Germany to be interned; remembers those Channel Islanders that died during this period due to the inhumane conditions in which they were kept; and believes that it is right that information regarding the occupation is accessible to the public so that the horrors of what was inflicted on the Channel Islanders is known by future generations.

Signatures by party: Conservative 2, Labour 2, Liberal Democrat 2, Scottish National Party 2, DUP 1, Independent 1.
