MARKING CHARTISM IN THE PALACE OF WESTMINSTER

Tabled by Paul Flynn (Labour) 18 signatures

The motion

That this House salutes the work of the Head of State; notes that the role of royalty is commemorated extensively throughout the Palace of Westminster; regrets that there are few, if any, portrayals of heroic work for democracy over recent centuries; believes that the work and sacrifices of Chartists, and many other progressive movements, should be honoured and celebrated by depictions of events in their proud histories.
