Armistice Day National Public Holiday (EDM2828)

Armistice Day National Public Holiday

EDM number 2828 in 2005-06, proposed by Jeremy Browne on 23/10/2006.

That this House believes that if the United Kingdom is to have an additional national public holiday, it should fall on 11th November, or if that is deemed to be impractical, the nearest Monday; that this would allow for greater reflection on the immense contribution made in conflict by successive generations to the continued freedom and prosperity of the United Kingdom and its allies; and that this national public holiday should be introduced to mark the death of the last British veteran from World War One, or alternatively, in 2008, the 90th anniversary of Armstice Day.

This motion has been signed by a total of 32 MPs.
