Remember, remember the fifth of November, the Gunpowder Treason and Plot. That is the opening line of one of the most famous rhymes in history – one that commemorates the attempt to blow up the House of Lords and King James I.
It all happened a long time ago, in 1605, but here we are over 400 years later still celebrating the failed attempt by Catholic freedom fighters/terrorists (depending on your point of view) to destroy parliament.
