We don't come out that well when ALL the facts are placed on the table:-

This ARTICLE includes the following comment* and includes some uncomfortable facts that fly in the face of the commendable 1917 Balfour Declaration which WAS something we can be proud of. It's a shame we didn't see it through to the final chapter.

*There is a moving statue of Jewish refugee children in London’s Liverpool Street Station that commemorates the Kindertransport, which brought 10,000 predominantly Jewish children to safety in the U.K. as WWII was brewing.

Maybe it is time to erect an empty plinth alongside it and encourage our schoolchildren to ask their teachers, "Why did their parents not come with them?"

Despite its pride in rescuing several thousand Jewish children before WWII, the truth is that successive British governments failed Europe’s Jews before the Holocaust – and afterwards.
