Hugh Robertson supports Holocaust Day

Hugh Robertson, the MP for Faversham and Mid Kent and the Shadow Sports and Olympics Spokesman, has today signed the national book of remembrance to support Holocaust Memorial Day.

Hugh Robertson said, “Whilst serving in the Army, I visited both Belsen and Dachau and have subsequently visited Auschwitz. Although the scale of the Holocaust has never been repeated, recent events in Bosnia, whilst I was serving there, and Rwanda have proved that genocide is, tragically, not a thing of the past.

I whole heartedly support the concept of Holocaust Memorial Day and would urge everyone to reflect on what they can do to support a future free from racism and discrimination.”
