Default Dacorum Borough Council, Herts : Cancels VE Day

Typical
LibDem Council



[A “woke” council was branded “shameful”
after rejecting calls for a military parade
to mark the 80th anniversary of VE Day
because it is “elitist”. Liberal Democrats
denied residents the opportunity for
a formal ceremony
and instead
suggested they host their own street parties.
Commemorations across the country
on May 8 will mark the end of
World War 2 in Europe, including a church
service attended by the Royal Family.

But Dacorum Borough Council in Hertfordshire
will not honour veterans, families,
and local residents with a parade
to mark the occasion.
Shadow defence minister David Reed,
a Royal Marines veteran,
said the decision was an “outrageous” attempt
to erase British history.
“If it makes me elitist to celebrate
the triumph of good over evil,
freedom over tyranny and bravery over
cowardice, then lock me up and throw
away the key,” he said.]
