Lodged by John Mason Standard Motion 29 supporters

The motion

That the Parliament notes that 23 March 2022 is the National Day of Reflection, which marks the anniversary of the first COVID-19 lockdown; recognises that it is a day to support the millions of people in the UK who have been bereaved during the coronavirus pandemic and to reflect on the lives of the people who have been lost, as individuals from all walks of life have had to say goodbye to loved ones; considers that the National Day of Reflection is a way for people to come together and acknowledge this lasting pain and that, with compassion and love, can show those who are grieving that they are not alone; welcomes that, whatever people's background, beliefs, and whatever they have been through, the National Day of Reflection will provide a time to stop and show support for each other, now and in the years to come; sympathises with all those who have suffered loss during the COVID-19 pandemic, and remembers all those who have been lost.
