Motion text

That this House recognises the leadership shown by Air Chief Marshal Sir Keith Rodney Park in leading to victory those who fought in the air during the Battle of Britain; congratulates the Sir Keith Park Memorial Campaign on its success in erecting a permanent bronze statue of Sir Keith in Waterloo Place on 15 September 2010, the 70th anniversary year of the Battle of Britain; believes that public acknowledgement of Park's leadership in the defence of Great Britain is long overdue; and furtherrecognises that this statue will provide a fitting reminder of the selfless action shown not just by British pilots who flew alongside the Royal Air Force under Park's command but also those from Australia, Belgium, Canada, Czechoslovakia, France, Ireland, Jamaica, Newfoundland, New Zealand, Poland, Rhodesia, South Africa and the United States.
