Early day motion tabled by primary sponsor Baroness Featherstone (Liberal Democrat), on Monday, 30 June 2008, in the House of Commons. It is signed by 23 members in total.


COMPLAINTS ABOUT HEINZ ADVERTISING

That this House regrets Heinz's decision to withdraw its television advert featuring two men kissing because of homophobic complaints and considers the scenes portrayed were in no way offensive or indecent; believes footage displaying affection between two people of the same sex should be treated in the same way as two people of the opposite sex; and calls for the company to resume its advertising campaign as planned.
