Early day motion tabled by primary sponsor Layla Moran (Liberal Democrat), on Thursday, 2 July 2026, in the House of Commons. It is signed by 28 members in total.


Potential merits of a knighthood for Harry Kane

That this House recognises the efforts of Harry Kane in England’s game against the Democratic Republic of Congo at the FIFA World Cup on Wednesday evening; celebrates the work of the England team in their 2026 World Cup campaign so far; wishes them every success in their next game against Mexico on Monday; notes that Kane has now scored more goals than Pelé at world cups; and believes that Harry Kane should be recognised with a knighthood for these achievements, and for his two outstanding goals in Wednesday evening’s game, which kept England’s World Cup dreams alive.
