Parliament president Roberta Metsola is urging people not to take Europe for granted, just days before an important vote. Metsola is calling on citizens to defend Europe by exercising their right to vote, warning that if they don't, others will make decisions on their behalf.
Meanwhile, Rishi Sunak's election campaigning and King Charles's recovery from cancer will be paused for 48 hours as they join veterans to commemorate the 80th anniversary of D-day. The events will take place at the ports where allied troops departed for their mission and on the French beaches where they initiated the liberation of Europe in 1944. The commemoration will kick off on Wednesday at 11am on Southsea Common in Portsmouth.
It is crucial for people to recognize the significance of Europe and actively participate in shaping its future through their votes.
