Early day motion tabled by primary sponsor Paul Marsden (Liberal Democrat), on Tuesday, 11 November 2003, in the House of Commons. It is signed by 36 members in total.


BRITISH WAR DEAD

That this House honours the British dead of the first World War and is greatly concerned by Belgian plans to build an extension to the A19 which will extend the roadway over a first World War site between Ypres and Passchendaele, forever buying in concrete the unmarked graves of those who gave their lives in the defence of freedom, peace democracy; and urges the British Government to intervene to ensure the battlefields are peacefully preserved for the memory of those brave soldiers.
