Julian Leeser MP, Federal Member for Berowra, has proudly participated in the global #WeRemember campaign for International Holocaust Remembrance Day.

#WeRemember is a worldwide campaign in the lead up to International Holocaust Remembrance Day (27 January), which last year reached 250 million people globally.

Supporting the Executive Council of Australian Jewry’s nationalised campaign in Australia, Mr Leeser has spoken out on the need to ensure future generations are aware of the horrors of the Holocaust.

“While the Holocaust has touched us because we have met and loved the survivors, for a coming generation without the survivors, the danger is that the Holocaust will seem as long ago as the Pogroms, the Crusades and slavery in Egypt,” Mr Leeser said.
