Jewish groups have warmly received the government’s initiative to establish a Holocaust Memorial Learning Centre in the heart of Westminster.
Announced alongside the new legislative agenda, the Holocaust Memorial Bill enables the government to proceed with plans to build the memorial near Parliament in Victoria Tower Gardens.
Deputy Prime Minister Angela Rayner reflected on the significance, stating, “The Holocaust remains a stark testament to the horrors unleashed by unchecked hatred and intolerance. It is essential that we preserve the memory of the victims and ensure their stories are never forgotten.”
“This Bill will mean future generations continue to learn lessons from the past and help to build a more unified, tolerant future.
“The cross-party unity on this shows the importance of this Bill and I encourage Peers to continue this unified front during the debate.”
