Make Poverty History
The motion
That the Parliament congratulates the First Minister for inviting Sir Bob Geldof to address the Africa Conference; shares Sir Bob’s outrage at the failure of the G8 countries to seriously address the issue of global poverty, and considers that the First Minister should use his position as host of the G8 summit to make clear that the people of Scotland expect the G8 leaders to make real progress towards making poverty history when they meet at Gleneagles in July.
