The UK will fall silent at 11am this morning (May 25th) as a minute's silence is observed in memory of those who tragically lost their lives in the Manchester terror attack.

The official Government website gave details of the minute that will be taken, 'A minute​’s silence will be held at 11am on Thursday 25 May in remembrance of those who lost their lives and all others that were affected by the attack in Manchester on Monday.'
