US EditionLondon WWII veteran, 100, says winning the war 'wasn't worth it' due to state of UK
Alec Penstone highlights growing national division and declining pride in the UK, with 86% noting tensions between immigrants and native-born citizens, according to recent research.
- On Friday, Alec Penstone, 100-year-old Second World War veteran, told ITV's Good Morning Britain he feels the wartime sacrifice failed to deliver a country he recognises.
- A national poll found 86 per cent see tension between immigrants and UK-born people, up from 74 per cent in 2023, while King's College London survey noted rising national division on social topics.
- Penstone was just 15 when the war began in 1939 and volunteered as a messenger during the Blitz, later serving in the Navy on submarines and aircraft carriers before the D-Day landings.
- Presenter Kate Garraway, Good Morning Britain presenter, told Penstone the nation was grateful and said it's up to this generation to care for the future, while Penstone recalled rows of white headstones on Remembrance Sunday.
- The veteran's comments connect to broader concerns about national direction and freedom, as Alec Penstone told Good Morning Britain the sacrifices are not reflected in today’s country.
