Armistice Day and Remembrance Sunday
This month, we observed Armistice Day and Remembrance Sunday. I was honoured to place a commemorative stake in The Constituency Garden of Remembrance in New Palace Yard outside the House of Commons.
The Garden of Remembrance was established by the Speaker in conjunction with the Royal British Legion. The garden marks the 100th anniversary of the Royal British Legion.
I was also honoured to join the community in Stopsley at the Armistice Day service. I then joined my Luton North colleague, Sarah Owen, to lay a wreath at the war memorial outside Luton Town Hall on Remembrance Sunday. A time to reflect and remember our armed forces and their families, from across the UK and the Commonwealth, who gave their service and sacrifice.
