The Liberal Democrat’s deputy leader described Rishi Sunak as “shameful” for leaving D-Day memorial events early as she recalled her late grandfather’s memories of the fateful day. Speaking on the BBC general election live debate on Friday (7 June), Daisy Cooper said: “It was not only politically shameful but I think many of us feel personally insulted. “I started yesterday morning watching a recording made by the Royal Mint of my late grandfather where he recounts catching his best friend who fell from the top of a Sherman tank and who was shot in the head as he waded through the water. “He recounted in his words, men blown to pieces, hands, legs and heads. If he had been there yesterday and seen the prime minister walk away from him, I would find that completely and utterly unforgivable.”
