00:00So we've seen an unacceptable rise in anti-Semitism in our communities, in our schools and on our university campuses and what I'm setting out today is action to provide more training for staff working to support students on campus, alongside that more education in our schools, particularly around Holocaust survivors, so allowing secondary school students to hear testimony directly from Holocaust survivors. It is essential that we educate our young people about the hatred of anti-Semitism alongside taking firm action wherever it rears its ugly head in this country.
