Democratic Unionist Party — Strangford

Speaking in the House of Commons on 11 November 2025

Debate

Remembrance Day: Armed Forces

Contribution

While we are celebrating and remembering the greatest generation, we also have the potential to build our young people into being the best generation. Perhaps we should be focusing on that as well—looking back, but also looking forward, as I think the Minister said. We must try to raise a generation of young people who are proud to be British, to stand against repression, and to undertake to be inclusive. Does the right hon. Gentleman agree that that is what we need to build for?
