Plaque for Lieutenant Colonel Nihal Singh who fought in the First World War, and whose great grandaughter Bibi Parmjit Kaur was present at the event. The Bristol Sikh War Memorial and Remembrance Garden at the official opening in Bristol's Castle Park, to honour an estimated 83,000 Sikh soldiers who lost their lives in the First and Second World Wars, and more than 100,000 who were seriously wounded. The unveiling was performed by HRH The Duke of Kent, KG. The garden is close to the ruins of St Peter’s Church and has been organised by the Bristol Sikh War Memorial Committee to be a peaceful way to remember the Sikh lives lost during the two conflicts. The idea was formed four years ago when Dilawer Singh Potiwal, the project leader of the committee, was attending a commemorative event with long-serving former Labour councillor Ron Stone, who died in 2015, and they had an idea that the Bristol Sikh community do something for their ancestors. All except the architects involved with the war memorial did so as volunteers. Photo credit: Simon Chapman/LNP

The garden is close to the ruins of St Peter’s Church and has been organised by the Bristol Sikh War Memorial Committee to be a peaceful way to remember the Sikh lives lost during the two conflicts. The idea was formed four years ago when Dilawer Singh Potiwal, the project leader of the committee, was attending a commemorative event with long-serving former Labour councillor Ron Stone, who died in 2015, and they had an idea that the Bristol Sikh community do something for their ancestors. All except the architects involved with the war memorial did so as volunteers. Photo credit: Simon Chapman/LNP

JOHN MCDONNELL MP, Shadow Chancellor, visits 12 Station Road Ashley Down, the former home of Walter Ayles who was imprisoned in 1916 for his opposition to the First World War. In April 2016 the Bristol Remember the Real World War One Group unveiled a plaque on Walter Ayles' former home. The Bristol Radical History Group has just published “Slaughter No Remedy”, a short biography of Walter Ayles, written by Colin Thomas and with an introduction by John McDonnell. In 1950, Walter Ayles became the M.P. for Hayes and Harlington, the constituency now held by John McDonnell. In his introduction to the Ayles' biography McDonnell writes: “I hope I can live up to being half of the socialist and peace promoter he so finely was.” In the book Ayles is quoted as saying: “Because horrible outrages and ghastly crimes have been committed by others, that is no reason why I too should kill and maim and destroy…Hate cannot be destroyed by hate. It can only be transformed by love.” Exactly a hundred years after Ayles appeared before a Military Service Tribunal in what is now the Bristol Register Office, his tribunal was re-enacted. He said “If I believed in the efficacy of slaughter to remedy evils” he told the tribunal, “I would long ago have advocated the killing of those in England who, year after year, have been responsible for the sweated, the starved and the slummed.” Then added -“I know, however, in my heart of hearts that slaughter being wrong is no remedy.” Photo credit : Simon Chapman/LNP

During the bombardment 130 civilians were killed and more than 500 were wounded. The Headland's Heugh Gun Battery returned fire in what was the only battle to be fought on British soil during World War One, and one of the Battery's soldiers, Theo Jones of the Durham Light Infantry, became the first British soldier to be killed by enemy action on home ground in the war.<br />
