Angie pays tribute to those who lost their lives in the Holocaust

On 27th January Angie joined Mayor of Ealing, Councillor Barbara Yerolemou, Leader of Ealing Council, Councillor Jason Stacey and other local Councillors at a tree planting ceremony outside Ealing Town Hall to mark Holocaust Memorial Day. On the 65th anniversary of the liberation of Auschwitz-Birkenau, Councillor Stacey spoke to those gathered and called the new tree a symbol of renewal. Recalling the terrible murder of millions of innocent Jews, he outlined the importance of learning from history and invited everyone to take their turn in helping to plant the tree.

Afterwards Angie commented, "I was so pleased I was there to pay my respects to those who lost their lives and also to the survivors, who still bear the scars of those appalling events."
