Well. That I'm afraid - and I speak both as someone who is not a fan of the cult of Jeremy, and whose mother fled Nazi Germany - is bollocks.
And just for the record: my mum and her parents got out of Germany not, like Dame Hodge's dad, in the mid-30s, to start a business in Cairo, but in 1939, by the skin of their teeth, three weeks before the war, having lost everything, having been, in my grandad's case, in a camp.
Sorry if that got a bit Four JewishMen. "Nazi persecution! She doesn't know the meaning of the word! etc etc."
