WE have witnessed magnificent support for our First World War fallen, including relatives of mine and those of my in-laws.

Despite terrorist threats, our wonderful Queen and her family, and ministers and the general public were present in memory of those who lost their lives in all wars.

I wonder why Tony Blair, who said some years ago, said the celebration of lost lives should be concluded, including the Cenotaph ceremony.

The country has witnessed services receiving public support from young and old, er public support including our York ceremony. Television and radio excelled.
