British woman stopped by police at station for 'false framing' of anti-Zionism
We take some details from you, obviously it's going to be, we're going to look at this incident.
So you're telling me what's been said, what did the text message say?
So, we've been informed by a member of public on that train to describe yourself and said that you allegedly made reference to the Holocaust.So obviously we...I didn't feel uncomfortable.
Made what reference, what's specific about what I've said?I made reference to the Holocaust.So on the train, someone has said that I've made an offensive comment that's made reference to the Holocaust.
Denying the Holocaust.Denying the Holocaust.OK.Obviously, we're going to be looking at this.Yeah.
As I arrived at my train station, I was met by the British transport police off the train.And I could see they were looking at me up and down as if they were trying to identify me.As you know, I've had interactions with the police and I'm aware of...I know the police.And they told me that they had received a text message from a passenger on the train and I am being investigated now for alleged racially aggravated public order offence.Specifically, I'm being accused of Holocaust denial.
I do not believe in coincidences.I do not think that this is random.I am not ashamed about my anti -Zionist beliefs.I am more than entitled to hold beliefs about a political ideology, and I'm more than entitled to express those beliefs and opinions.In fact, they're actually protectedprotected philosophical belief under the Equality Act 2010.
I can criticise a nationalist political ideology.I can hold opinions and express those opinions, but I'm also very aware of people being persecuted for saying certain things.So I'm being accused of being anti -Semitic and being a Holocaust denier specifically.That was repeated to me several times.
