Imran Tauqir, General Manager of the lastminute.com London Eye, said: “We are proud to be illuminated in purple from dusk til dawn, joining people across London lighting candles in their windows, to mark the national day of mourning and remembrance. We stand in solidarity with the Jewish community, and hope that looking back will ensure we continue to learn from the past to build a better future.”
