He commented on the D-Day anniversary:
I cannot imagine how those young soldiers felt disembarking onto those beaches, often under fire. Their courage and sacrifice is our freedom.
We must remember them and never take peace and liberty for granted. And never allow national populism and fascism to win. #DDay75 pic.twitter.com/izrbVVixdO

Then he, too, was off to Peterborough to see by-election candidate Beki Sellick ahead of tomorrow’s poll.

And, on World Environment Day, he commented on a Treasury Select Committee report about decarbonisation.

Ed: please plant large numbers of fast growing or large trees. They do not release their carbon until they decay. If future temperatures are higher than now it would help if they are fire resistant. The oldest ones in the UK are only a century old, but on west coast USA some are many times older. We have planted four at the bottom of the hill to improve the view over an industrial estate. They are now above the ground floor level of the house.
