75th Anniversary of VE Day
The motion
That the Parliament commemorates the 75th anniversary of Victory in Europe (VE) Day; pays tribute to the surviving veterans and recognises the enormous sacrifice of men and women from across the Allied nations and resistance fighters in Nazi-occupied territory for their contribution and courage in defeating fascism; regrets the enormous loss of life whether in combat, as victims of the Holocaust or the many innocent civilians killed during the hostilities; celebrates the enduring peace achieved in Europe since 1945; notes that current circumstances do not allow for a more traditional celebration of the collective endeavour to bring peace to Europe, but pledges again to ensure that such a conflict is never allowed to engulf the world again.
