It should not be difficult to understand or recognise that this is an intimidating atmosphere for Jewish people on their way home from work. Many have had to turn back. Chants ‘From the river to the sea’ are calling for the destruction of Israel, the only Jewish state. Enough.

The Holocaust was the murder of 6 million Jewish men, women and children. Yes it was a human tragedy but make no mistake: Jews were not barricaded into gas chambers because they were human beings. Rather, humans were massacred in their millions simply because they were Jews.

I called Lily today to say thank you. We chatted a bit and she told me she was fasting over #YomKippur . I was astonished and tried to dissuade her. She said: “Karen, I have had days without food. Even in Auschwitz I fasted on Yom Kippur... “ It took me a moment to find my voice

1/ This sends an appalling message. “Zero tolerance" either means zero tolerance or it's meaningless. The scathing report from the EHRC less than three weeks ago outlined a stream of racism and discrimination by the Labour Party on Jeremy Corbyn’s watch. Yet here we are.

Owen, the Leader of the Labour Party and General Secretary were in the room. They heard the rantings and said nothing. How is this a desperation to rebuild trust? And this Labour MP *after* the recording came out, posted this: It’s terrifying Owen

After his comments, there's no way I'll vote for Pete Willsman for Labour's NEC. I'll proudly vote for the other 8 excellent Labour left candidates. I won't vote for someone who undermines the struggle against the disgusting disease of anti-Semitism.

On Holocaust Memorial Day, when people from all backgrounds, parties & faiths came together to remember the unique evil of the Holocaust,Mr Corbyn chose to chair an event undermining its very purpose - deliberately distorting of the truth of history’s greatest crime. @HolocaustUK

EXCLUSIVE: Jeremy Corbyn hosted an event in parliament comparing the Israeli govt to the Nazis - on Holocaust Memorial Day. The 2010 event was part of a national tour called: "Never again for anyone - Auschwitz to Gaza"

Holocaust Memorial Day already rightly includes all victims of the Nazis and subsequent genocides. But the Holocaust was a specific crime, with antisemitism at its core. Any attempt to remove that specificity is a form of denial and distortion

Her Royal Highness @KensingtonRoyal originally met Manfred and his wife Shary when she visited Stutthof - a concentration camp Manfred somehow managed to survive. I cannot tell you how proud I feel and what this means to Manfred. A beautiful moment captured here. @HolocaustUK

Catching sight of Manfred Goldberg and his wife Shary, the duchess broke into a broad smile. ‘Manfred,’ she beamed, ‘it’s so lovely to see you again. How are you? ‘When I saw your name on the guest list I thought ‘yes!’ I am so happy to see you!  ‘How have you been?’
