Order. Order.

Hello, I'm Alicia McCarthy, and this is today in Parliament from BBC Radio 4 for Friday the 9th of May.

Whereas tributes are paid to those who served in World War II, one peer recounts her father's miraculous escape.

Five days out and up comes a sub, 100 yards in front of us, and looses off three torpedoes.

Calls for more help for the families of Britain's murdered abroad.

We handled everything directly ourselves, including repatriation of Tommy, because we weren't

getting any help from our government at this end or that end. Also on this programme, we look ahead

to the next stage of the assisted dying bill. And is it time to protect one of the UK's niche

industries? From going to every single high street sign being illuminated to just 27 glass benders left,

it's quite a drastic cut in a trade.

To sort of lose the neon industry would be a travesty.

But first.

On behalf of Mr Speaker, a warm welcome to members, staff and visitors to the Lower Waiting Hall

for the inaugural turning of

the page ceremony of the House of Commons books of remembrance. The Speaker's chaplain Canon Mark

Birch at the start of just one of the many commemorative events held in and around Westminster

in the week to Mark Vee Day. At this one, the common speaker, Sir Lindsay Hoyle,

turned the first page of the House of Commons Book of Remembrance, containing the names of the

six two members, their children and the staff of the House who died in World War II.

Major Lord, upslate, Royal Gloucestershire Hazars.

Colonel James Baldwin Webb, Royal Army Service Corps.
