Early Day Motion 2673

Role of British and NATO forces in Afghanistan

Tabled 26 January 2026 by Peter Lamb

That this House remembers the many British soldiers who, alongside European and NATO allies, risked their lives in Afghanistan; recognises the vital role the United Kingdom and our European partners had in the region between 2001 and 2014 following the declaration of NATO's Article 5; pays its deepest tribute to the thousands of soldiers who suffered often life-altering injuries and the 457 British soldiers who lost their lives, including Crawley residents Scott Summers and John Brackpool; and rejects any suggestion that NATO troops avoided the front line of the conflict.
