Nana Akua: Remembrance Sunday makes me immensely proud to be part of this great nation and hugely proud to be British. Which is why I find it somewhat disgusting when those who come to this country - many exploiting the UK's generous nature - denigrate it. https://t.co/4zzy2kht7H

I was pleased to attend the Cenotaph yesterday for Remembrance Sunday; the first time the UK’s Veterans Minister has done so. This Prime Minister is determined to finally get this agenda right, and I’m determined that I will deliver that vision for him, and more importantly, you. https://t.co/KHxLfJMa82
