NEVER FORGET

Royals, veterans and politicians pay tribute

- WILL STONE

BRITAIN came to a standstill as the country fell silent for Remembrance Sunday yesterday.

King Charles led the nation in saluting of the fallen, laying the first wreath at the Cenotaph in central London that recognises deaths from conflicts dating back to World War One.

He was joined by other royals, including the Prince and Princess of Wales, along with hundreds of veterans.

Other floral tributes followed from members of the Royal Family, Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer, other political leaders and foreign diplomats.

A two-minute silence was observed in the heart of Whitehall and at war memorials across Britain.
