Gordon Ross Humanist of the Year
The motion
That the Parliament congratulates Paul Miller on being named Gordon Ross Humanist of the Year; understands that Paul has been instrumental in furthering the work of StreetCare, which collects, distributes and donates food to homeless and vulnerable people in Glasgow on a weekly basis; notes that Paul has achieved all of this while being a living kidney donor, from which it took months to recover; understands that Paul makes a "legendary lentil soup" with just the right amount of pepper, which is appreciated by volunteers and those who interact with StreetCare, and acknowledges that the award Paul has received is only given to those who extol the virtues of ethics, rationalism, human rights, social responsibility and democracy.
