Motion Text

That this House acknowledges sadly that 14 November 2026 marks the 45th anniversary of the killing of Rev Robert Bradford MP, aged 40, and community centre caretaker Kenneth Campbell, aged 29, who were murdered by the Provisional IRA while holding a constituency advice surgery in South Belfast; remembers Rev Bradford's public service as the Ulster Unionist Member of Parliament for Belfast South and his commitment to representing his constituents; pays tribute to Kenneth Campbell, an innocent civilian murdered simply while carrying out his daily duties; extends its continued sympathy and solidarity to the families and loved ones of both men; and reaffirms its commitment to democratic politics and the rejection of all forms of terrorism and political violence.
