Holocaust Memorial Day is the day for everyone to remember the millions of people killed in the Holocaust, Nazi persecution and the subsequent genocides in Cambodia, Rwanda, Bosnia and Darfur. The 27th January marks the liberation of Auschwitz-Birkenau, the largest Nazi death camp.
On Holocaust Memorial Day we honour the survivors of these regimes and challenge ourselves to use the lessons of their experience to inform our lives today. Today I signed the book of commitment which was in the House of Commons.
