Given the Second World War has become something like Britain’s founding myth, to make this point feels like denigrating our national story.

Nazi Germany tried to take on the world and lost. Although if they had succeeded, they would not have held onto it for very long.

The 8th November 2019 marks seventy-eight years since the launch of Operation Torch.

On this day, please take a moment to recall why you are a member of the victorious party – remember what has been won.
