This morning at the Memorial Gates in London, I was honoured to join a remembrance ceremony for the five million men and women who served during the First and Second World Wars. Their shared sacrifices helped shape the freedom we enjoy today. #CommonwealthDay

Commonwealth War Graves
“The most perfect, the noblest, the most classically beautiful memorial.” That’s how Forceville Communal Cemetery and Extension in France was described when it was completed in the 1920s. Originally one of three ‘experimental’ cemeteries, and designed by Sir Reginald Blomfield (with early plans by Charles Holden), Forceville helped shape the vision for permanent commemoration after the First World War. Today, we’re carrying out essential works to protect this site for future generations. Time and weather have taken their toll, and we’re carefully restoring the stone boundary walls to ensure the cemetery remains safe and true to its original character.

I am closely following the troubling developments in Bangladesh. I urge respect for the rule of law and for authorities to take every measure to ensure peace and the safety of all. In this regard, I welcome the statement of the interim Government calling for restraint, responsibility, and an abiding commitment to reject hatred.
