I think they (and lots of others) think today is supposed to be about celebrating 'the win' rather than remembering the losses.

This comes at a time when Britain is sailing away from the kind of shared principles and common objectives that have helped create ties with other countries and prevent conflict.
Ditto re: vacuous celebrations when deep reflection would be more germane.
