On Remembrance Sunday Lisa Nandy has claimed that no one in Britain has had to fight a war since WW2.
What about the 7,193 British soldiers who have sacrificed their lives in conflicts ranging from the Korean War to Afghanistan?
While she erases their service, the country will never forget their bravery.
Remembrance Sunday is a sacred day, not to be cynically used by Labour to justify closer ties to the EU. Whatever the merits of their argument - and I believe reopening the Brexit wars is both a colossal waste of energy and a strategic disaster when national sovereignty is more important than ever - this is not the day for it.
It’s disappointing that Nandy and Andy Burnham, who presumably agreed to this, have failed so badly to meet the moment.
Another Secretary of State who has replies switched off.
What a silly stunt this announcement is. How much will it cost and where will the teachers come from ?
It's absolutely incredible that armed police are hunting a man reportedly seen carrying a large blade near a school in Gloucester this morning, yet no description of him appears to have been released.
A child has been injured. Armed officers are searching the area.
But the public haven't been told what this man looks like, how tall he is or what he's wearing.
How are people supposed to protect themselves or help police identify him?
If officers have a reliable description, the public should be given it.
🚨BREAKING: It has been revealed charities that lobbied the UK Government to relax immigration rules have received over £1 BILLION in taxpayer funding

Barnardo's - £192million
Praxis - £1million
The entire charity system is being scammed by traitors
The reaction of a recent migrant arrival after being photographed upon reaching our shores (illegally). Honestly, if you were genuinely fleeing war or persecution, wouldn't you show just the tiniest gratitude when landing up in a country you were hoping would give you sanctuary?
The police have done absolutely nothing to protect my life.
I'm constantly receiving death threats, and I'm being forced to defend myself physically.
I'm offering a £100 reward for information that helps identify the person who just violently assaulted me in Cambridge.
Romesh Ranganathan, BBCs goldon boy, showed his true feelings, giving his winnings from winning celebrity traitors, to help illegal immigrants being shipped in on our coastlines.
Not for children’s charities, our veterans, or cancer charities, nope, for REFUGEES!
I will now Boycott him!

🚨 BRAINTREE BUS STATION TODAY – RESIDENTS AND SHOP OWNERS LEFT FURIOUS!
Around 60 men from RAF Wethersfield gathered at Braintree bus station today, waiting to be transported back to the asylum centre after attending the Care4Calais event in town.
Serious allegations were made during the afternoon, including reports of a migrant filming children and an attempted attack on a female Operation Vanguard officer.
Members of the community and local shop owners were understandably furious, and the police were called.
But it didn't end there.
As members of the public stood at the bus stop, a man on the bus reportedly struck a woman's phone out of her hand.
And what happened next?
Police closed the bus doors, and the men were allowed to travel back to RAF Wethersfield.
No arrests were witnessed at the scene.
Braintree residents, women, children and local businesses have every right to feel safe in their own town.
Make it easier for people to dispose of their rubbish then, its not brain science!!
