HUNDREDS of survivors of the Holocaust and other genocides joined public figures to commemorate Holocaust Memorial Day this week, 73 years on from the horrors of the nazi genocide.

Politicians of all parties offered tributes, with Prime Minister Theresa May saying: “We must never forget where prejudice can lead” and the Scottish First Minister Nicola Sturgeon adding: “Hate is not inevitable. We must never again allow it to flourish.”

“Your legacy is our eternal commitment,” chief rabbi Ephraim Mirvis told survivors.
