A man riding a bus in London on June 17 shouted a couple of pro-Nazi Germany statements at a Jewish mother holding a baby, according to a tweet posted by a volunteer group.
The volunteer group Shomrim in Stamford Hill tweeted that that the man, said to be 60, shouted at the Jewish woman, “shame Nazis didn’t put the gas higher” and “the Germans should have killed all of them [Jews].” The Jewish mother felt “extremely traumatized” afterward, according to the Shomrim tweet.

The Campaign Against Anti-Semitism said in a statement, “Anti-Semitic abuse on public transport has become a regular feature of London life for many Jews, and the police and prosecuting authorities take action to bring offenders to justice.”
The Simon Wiesenthal Center similarly tweeted, “Winston Churchill and the millions of Brits who survived the [Blitzkrieg] then helped defeat Nazis must be rolling in their graves as neo-Nazis spout their genocidal hatred of Jews in #UK 75 [years] later.”

The June 17 incident comes after another anti-Semitic incident was tweeted about that allegedly had occurred on a London bus on June 16, when a man flipped his middle finger at a Jewish man and said, “Jews are all spies, [I] will beat you up, what’s wrong with all you lot.” Additionally, the Shomrim tweeted that on June 17, someone threw dog feces and eggs on a Jewish family’s front door; the family believes the incident was anti-Semitic.
