Walter Tull was one of Britain's first black footballers - playing for Tottenham Hotspur and Northampton Town -
and first black army officer. He died, aged 29, on the battlefields of World War One.

Over the years there have been calls for him to be posthumously awarded a Military Cross for his bravery in the war and now, on the centenary of his death, more than 100 MPs have signed a letter to the prime minister calling on her to intervene.

His great nephew, Edward Finlayson says it would be "righting a wrong".
