'We won't stand for it': 4000 witness Home Secretary's Jew-hate vow at Yom HaShoah event

[Beastly Boy]

Yvette Cooper tonight vowed to “never forget that the road to the Holocaust began in a democracy” as she addressed around 4000 community members and allies at the National Yom HaShoah Commemoration.

The event – in Victoria Tower Gardens by the Houses of Parliament – marked 80 years since the end of the Holocaust and the liberation of Bergen-Belsen by British Armed Forces.

The Home Secretary said: “More than three quarters of a century on, we know antisemitism has remained stubbornly present in our own society, and the torrent of antisemitism that swept through countries, including here in the UK, following the October 7th barbaric terrorist attacks, was sickening and intolerable.

“I want to say to Britain’s Jewish communities, on behalf of the Government and of Members of Parliament from across all political parties, we will not stand for it, not now, not ever.”
