A SURVIVOR today urged the world to "never forget" the horrors of the Holocaust amid the surge in antisemitism in London.
Speaking ahead of Holocaust Memorial Day tomorrow, Freddy Berdach, 93, who lives in Pinner, north-west London, said the world must continue to be vigilant as he warned that hatred against minority groups was "still happening".
The great-grandfather said: "All the talks I give, I always end with one line: 'Forgive but never forget!
"And that's the only way we can remember is marking the day, making it a solemn day, and letting people know. Because it's still happening, and not just the Jewish people, there's Holocaust all over the world, and it's still happening and we need to highlight this."
