Matt Lucas issued the following statement of support of Holocaust Memorial Day 2007.
“60 years ago, as an openly gay man, it may have been difficult for me to make a career in the public eye. Had I lived in a country directly affected by Nazi policies, the situation would have been far worse, it is likely that I would have faced prejudice, persecution or even been sent to a death camp. For our generation, living in the UK is great, because we can be proud of what makes us different but we are not defined by it. I give my full support to Holocaust Memorial Day, and the Same. But Different message. It’s important that we learn the lessons of the past to make a better future for us all.”
