I think “winning” the second World War was the worst thing that ever happened to Britain psychologically. We continue to celebrate the losses and hardships more than the victory. Dunkirk, the Blitz, rationing. Ask five people on any high street, on which day of the year we remember the fallen and I reckon 4 out of 5 will tell you. Ask anyone over 50 and it’ll be 100%. Then ask them when VE Day is. I reckon anyone under-25 won’t even know what VE day is…
