My OH has no living relatives on her mother's side.Indeed her mother died when my OH was a teenager on account of her experiences in Paris 1942-45. |

With respect Rollo I truely feel for your OH family and the awful struggle they had, but quite how that makes you want to remain in Europe is beyond me. They suffered at the hands of the Germans. This was watched and encouraged by the Poles and the French amongst others. No person was sent to a concentration camp from the UK except for the Channel islands. |

The EU constitutes the anschluss surely, and was that not deamed to be such a threat to the stability of Europe that it was expressly forbidden by the Treaty of Versailles? |

Agreed there were Polish freedom fighters and French fighters no one disputes that, but all over Europe locals in many cases helped round up the Jewish people. |
