Sir Keir Starmer and his wife Victoria left a wreath and a poignant written message as they visited Auschwitz, a place the prime minister described as “utterly harrowing”, on Friday (17 January).
The PM described how he felt "sickness" and an "air of desolation" as he stood by the train tracks at the former Nazi concentration camp in Poland, vowing to fight the “poison of antisemitism”.
His wife Victoria, who is Jewish, joined him as she made her second visit to the site which Sir Keir said was "no less harrowing than the first time she stepped through that gate and witnessed the depravity of what happened here.”
