I am a 72 year old Jewish pensioner. My German parents came here as refugees (on a boat) in the 1940s to escape Nazi Germany. My grandparents remained in the country and were deported to Auschwitz where they were murdered. (ctd)

I grew up on stories of the run-up to the Final Solution I heard about the rhetoric used to depict us as vermin, criminals, rapists The othering of Jews, made to wear distinctive stars. The propaganda in the popular press, the finger pointing and intimidation
#braverman #jewish
.. the refusal to condemn the perpetrators when Jews were beaten up in the street or their homes attacked.
I do not see anything in the current state of this country nor in the words or actions of his government that does not make me agree with @GaryLineker.
#Refugees #jews
#Refugees, #AsylumSeekers, famous sports presenters are not the 'enemy' here.

The government is.
End.
