Churchill Bust In America

EDM number 961 in 2008-09, proposed by Gregory Campbell on 03/03/2009.
Categorised under the topics of Art works and North America.

That this House notes the decision of the new US President not to retain in the White House the gift of a bust of Winston Churchill; expresses the hope that this decision may now allow, in appropriate circumstances, a display of the bust in the United States for millions of Americans and others to see what courage, leadership, vision and determination is in a political leader, who helped steer not just his nation but the free world to victory over fascism and terror on a worldwide scale; and further expresses the hope that some day soon a leader coming close to Churchill's stature will emerge in the United States who can do likewise.

This motion has been signed by a total of 12 MPs.
