This has been a solemn week in what has been a desperately sad month in a desperately sad year.

On 11 November the UK like many other countries commemorates Remembrance Day, or Armistice Day, which originally marked the guns falling silent at the end of the First World War. Every country has its own way of commemorating past conflict. For us 11 November is about remembrance. As we say at our traditional commemoration: At the going down of the sun and in the morning, we will remember them.
