We Will Remember Them
The motion
That the Parliament mourns the passing of Harry Patch and Henry Allingham, Britain’s last surviving World War I veterans; acknowledges the huge debt of gratitude that we owe both these men and their comrades who fought and died for the freedoms that we enjoy today; encourages young people to learn more about the heroic sacrifices made by British service personnel during the war, and pledges to continue to commemorate the lives and memory of all those who fell during the First World War.
