Public disorder in Southampton and Belfast

Early day motion 340, tabled 11 June 2026 by Max Wilkinson (Liberal Democrat). Signed by 27 members.

That this House expresses sympathy to the victims, their families, and all those affected by the attacks in both Southampton and Belfast; condemns the public disorder in Belfast and Southampton; affirms that while peaceful protest is a fundamental right, violence and intimidation have no place in a democratic society; further condemns those politicians and public figures whose rhetoric has inflamed tensions and contributed to disorder; commends the emergency services for their response; and calls on all leaders to act responsibly, restore calm, and support efforts to restore community cohesion.

Signatures by party: Liberal Democrat 26, Labour 1.
