Juniors100 Debated in the Scottish Parliament!
Tuesday 14th November 2017MSPs from three political parties participated in a Juniors 100 debate, which was called following a parliamentary motion from Alexander Stewart MSP welcoming the milestone marking 100 years of The BB working with the Junior Section age group.
A number of BB alumni are also members of the Scottish Parliament, including MSPs Fulton MacGregor, Stuart McMillan and Iain Gray, all of whom spoke in the debate.
Stuart McMillan MSP, the Parliamentary Piper, learned to play the pipes in The Boys’ Brigade. In his contribution to the debate, he said “Whether through team building, sport, charity activity, helping people to become good citizens or the many other activities that it does, The Boys’ Brigade delivers in every constituency in the country, throughout the UK and globally. It has been a force for good and it is a huge cause for celebration that the Junior Section is now 100 years old.”
