Today, we’re flying the flags of Jersey & Guernsey above MoJ HQ to mark Liberation Day.

At 11am 78 years ago today, JE employees reclaimed Queen’s Road Power Station from occupying forces, enabling people in St Helier to hear Churchill’s speech on the radio. We're proud to have served our Island community for 99 years. Wishing you all a Happy Liberation Day! https://t.co/3BRQ2G6jKx
