Charity refuses to delete clip of Holocaust survivor confronting Home Secretary
4 hours ago
A charity which supports torture victims has defied Home Office demands to delete a video of Suella Braverman being confronted by a Holocaust survivor over her language on immigration.
Freedom From Torture has said the Home Secretary should be “ashamed” of her “dehumanising” rhetoric and it will not be “pressured into helping her hide it” by taking down the clip.
The video shows 83-year-old Holocaust survivor Joan Salter confronting the Government minister during a meeting in her Fareham constituency in Hampshire on Friday evening.
The Home Office has said the one-minute video “misrepresents the interaction” because it presents selected excerpts of Ms Braverman’s response, which was several minutes long.
During the exchange, Ms Salter, who has been recognised with an MBE for her work on Holocaust education, likened Ms Braverman’s language on migrants attempting to cross the English Channel to that used by the Nazis.
This shows how the Tories do not care one bit about the environment at all and care about themselves. Once they are voted out the better.
