Speaking in the House of Lords on 4 March 2025

Debate

Holocaust Memorial Bill

Contribution

I do not want to take my grandchildren to see computer images that they can watch sitting in our television room at home where I can talk them through them; I want them to see real artefacts that tell them what the Holocaust was about, and we cannot do that in a shoebox. I do not see one iota of attraction, if noble Lords will forgive the mixed metaphor, in a shoebox that looks like a toast rack. This is not a great piece of art, and it most certainly is not a Holocaust learning centre.
