Friday was Holocaust Memorial Day and a chance to remember as well as to reaffirm the better side of human nature. At a time when bigotry and division are playing out on our television screens on a daily basis, I reflect that human nature is easily swayed towards cruelty. We need the leaders of our nation and of our organisations to act differently, drawing on our better nature and remaining connected, committed to peace and respect as a better way forward.
