Liberal Democrat — Chelmsford

Speaking in the House of Commons on 20 January 2026

Debate

Holocaust Memorial Bill

Contribution

I could not agree more with my hon. Friend. Manfred Goldberg went on to say, “Last month I celebrated my 93rd birthday and I pray to be able to attend the opening of this important project.” Tragically, Manfred passed away on 6 November last year, at the age of 95. My thoughts are with his family. He was an extraordinary man who gave so much to Holocaust remembrance and education in the United Kingdom. As a nation, we must continue that legacy and ensure that this memorial and education centre are built through proper process, with careful planning, strong security and quick delivery. In doing so, we will be commemorating the 6 million Jewish people murdered in the Holocaust, honouring survivors, and creating a space that truly educates future generations, and that stands as a lasting commitment to remembrance.
