From the next General Election West Derby will consist of Croxteth, Knotty Ash, Norris Green, Tuebrook & Stoneycroft, West Derby and Yew Tree. The constituency includes Alder Hey and Broad Green hospitals and Croxteth Country Park.

Holocaust Memorial Day

Holocaust Memorial Day Logo January 27th. HMD is an opportunity to remember the horror of the Nazi Holocaust and to reflect on lessons for today. When I was in Parliament previously I was part of a cross party group of MPs and Peers who persuaded the Government to establish Holocaust Memorial Day on the anniversary of the liberation of Auschwitz.

Since 2005 I have been working with the UK Holocaust Centre in Nottinghamshire to promote education and public debate about the Holocaust and other genocides. HMD gives a voice to survivors from the Holocaust and more recent genocides - including that in Rwanda in 1994 when a million people were killed in 100 days. It also reminds world leaders of present day atrocities, not least that in Darfur.

I know that many Liverpool schools have been discussing the Holocaust and issues arising from it in the run up to HMD. This education is vital if we are to make a reality of the oft-repeated slogan "Never Again."
