Antisemitic

The BBC managed to find someone who thought it was

Kier Starmer has given the most sensible answer I've seen so far

Bridgen is a right cock though

Michelle Donelan also agreed it was A-S when prompted by Chris Mason on the Newscast podcast.

Ooh another Tory, careful or someone will throw their favourite ‘left, right, left, right’ witticism (ha) at you whilst once again failing to see you’ve just stated a fact.
 
What I don’t get is why when anyone mention the Holocaust it’s classed as antisemitic. Surely it’s anti soviet and many more were murdered.
I guess it’s ok to be anti soviet in these times.

It’s not necessarily amti-semitic, but I'd consider it disrespectful to all those that died when people compare it to something relatively trivial.
 
The German Holocaust didn't even specifically target only Jews.
The word holocaust refers to destruction or slaughter on a mass scale, particularly by burning or fire - modern terminology.
It originates from burning sacrifices at the altar.

Need to chuck in those civilians killed by bombs and nuclear blasts in WW2.
Further victims of a holocaust.
 
Wanksock called the comments by Bridgen: "disgusting, anti-Semitic, anti-vax, conspiracy theories".

The unelected Sunak said: "Obviously, it is utterly unacceptable to make linkages and use language like that, and I'm determined that the scourge of anti-Semitism is eradicated. It has absolutely no place in our society. And I know that the previous few years have been challenging for the Jewish community, and I never want them to experience anything like that ever again."

So I agree with you 100% Hackers...

THE Holocaust is specific. More Soviets were murdered in THE holocaust than any other “group”
 
Any one of you geniuses could easily look up:

a) why the jewish genocide is called 'the holocaust', and in particular it's etymology.
b) why any mention of the holocaust is not in itself anti-semitic, but the context in which it is used is.

Now go away and 'do your own research'.
Clue: Talking to a Rabbi in a synagogue might be more useful than watching youtube videos of some idiot with bad teeth who's read 'the protocols of the elders of zion' dribble on and on about the worldwide jewish conspiracy.

Isn't that basically what us geniuses were saying?

No, that's what sensible people are saying.
Others on here are claiming what he said wasn't anti-semitic because they don't want to contextualize it (the second part of my sentence, conveniently ignored), thereby arguing anybody can say stuff like that with impunity.
