Categorised under the topics of Broadcasting and Equality.

That this House applauds the decision made by Channel 5 to remove Ken Morley from the Celebrity Big Brother house, following unacceptable and offensive language; condemns the racist terms used by Mr Morley when referring to both singer Alexander O'Neal and boxer Frank Bruno; is glad Big Brother has learnt the lessons of similar situations which have occurred in the past, when Shilpa Shetty suffered racist comments; and calls upon all broadcasters to have a zero-tolerance for racist, sexist, homophobic and other discriminatory acts.

This motion has been signed by a total of 2 MPs.
