@metpoliceuk @PoliceChiefs @ukhomeoffice @SuellaBraverman @RishiSunak @MayorofLondon @LondonAssembly @CPhilpOfficial @AndrewBoff Quite unbelievable. To remove the national and forces flags from our most peaceful and significant memorial is both wrong and disrespectful.

..was this chap demonstrating to others how not to do it? I’m sure his agressive demeanour and inability to see an opportunity not to hold up numerous folk traversing a busy city was to highlight wrong behaviour? My day was only held up for 4mins, not sure about those behind me

The Queen presented Harry Billinge with an MBE today. The D-Day veteran raised £1 for every British soldier who died at Normandy to help fund a @normandymtrust memorial. ‘I am choked beyond measure to think I have got an MBE. I don’t deserve it.’ We disagree, Harry.🎖

Great idea. Why not @wandbc ?
Thank you Maria. @wandbc collect the money, it must add up to a fair amount at your busy donor centre, the question is aimed at them, to see what they can do to help your organisation.
A must watch
As we approach the 75th anniversary of D-Day #juno75 Have you ever wondered how the Navy cleared the mines in advance of the landings? Watch "Clear the Mines" on our YouTube channel to find out. youtu.be/HLBUljMw83o

A fitting end to a wonderful day in East Anglia, after visiting @100bgmus & @IWMDuxford , hearing The Last Post at Cambridge American Cemetery was special.
