Calls have been made for two Lanarkshire policemen killed while serving to be recognised for their bravery at Parliament.
Police Constable George Taylor was murdered in 1976, while Detective Sergeant Ross Hunt was killed seven years later. Despite efforts from both families, neither have been recognised by the UK Government - with the most recent attempts denied in December 2021.
Now, the debate has resurfaced led by Wendy Chamberlain, MP for North East Fife. Angela Crawley, Lanark and Hamilton East MP, commented: “I am thankful to Wendy Chamberlain for bringing forward this debate and for including the cases from my constituency of PC George Taylor and DS Ross Hunt.
