Yesterday evening the lights in Bottle Alley were displayed in their finery in honour of Armistice Day and will be displayed during evenings until Remembrance Sunday (Hastings Borough Council facebook page).
This is a fine way to commemorate Armistice Day and to remember the service and sacrifice of those in many wars who have defended our freedom and our way of life...
But, surely it is now time to make Armistice Day a public holiday in Britain, just as it is already in France and Belgium, where they appear to care more for fallen British lives than the British Government does?!?
