An extraordinarily powerful speech was given by Baroness Jowell in the House of Lords this afternoon.
It led to a rare, but wholly appropriate, standing ovation.
Baroness Jowell quoted Seamus Heaney's last words, "Noli Timere".
On the anniversary of the Scottish Bard's birthday the last words of his Irish peer rang out with universal reach:
"Do not be afraid".
