Former Chancellor Discusses Research Project on National Unity

Speaking to GB News, Mr Javid said the project would gather public input on what people think matters most.

Javid recalled an early memory from age seven during the late Queen's Silver Jubilee. He described being dressed in red, white and blue by his mother and seeing Union Jack flags at school and in his parents' shop. He said the experience left him feeling British and patriotic, and that the feeling stayed with him.

Javid stated that people may have different views but the project seeks to hear from as many as possible. He described it as a national conversation open to everyone. "One of the earliest memories I have is when I was seven years old. My mum dressed me and my brother up in red, white and blue and the late Queen's Silver Jubilee.
