Don’t stay silent over racial discrimination, warns Holocaust survivor

A Holocaust survivor has warned Britons to be vigilant against anti-semitism as the country marks Holocaust Memorial Day by remembring the genocide of six millions Jews during the Second World War. John Dobai, 89, survived the war as a child in Budapest, Hungary but lost five family members – two grandfathers, two aunts and a cousin, who was just 17. Mr Dobai has lived in Britain since 1948 and, speaking from his home in Kew, west London, he told the PA News Agency that antisemitism is as prominent in modern Britain as it has ever been.
