And in doing so, I hope that we can work—and I do think that the Governments of the United Kingdom—. We will have our differences from time to time, but my experience is that the Governments of the United Kingdom work well together to deliver for this agenda. The conversations that we had yesterday were all positive conversations across the table in London, and I hope that it will continue to be so. I will be meeting the Ministry of Defence again next week in order to consider our ongoing support for serving members of the armed forces and I hope that we will be able to work together, and am confident that we can work together with both the MOD and with the Foreign and Commonwealth Office to ensure that we have the appropriate memorials that enable us to not just remember the sacrifices of past generations, but also to ensure that future generations understand that history and don't repeat our mistakes.
