Quote for Battle of Britain day, 15th September 2019

Today is Battle of Britain day: it is the 79th anniversary of a major Lufwaffe offensive which was beaten back with heavy casualties.

We have the freedom to express our views today because of the sacrifice of a few hundred pilots, of whom some British, some were free Poles and others from countries in Europe who still bravely fought on although their homes were under the Nazi jackboot, some were volunteers from all over the world.

We must never forget what they did for us 79 years ago.
