Holocaust survivors were placed on an 100 year old slave ship by the British and threatened with a return to Germany.

Actually the passengers of the SS Exodus were returned to Germany and housed in a former concentration camp. Rumors that the camp was run by a German are untrue. Only the staff were German. Another refusal of the Brits to honor their longstanding legal obligantion to settle Jews in the Jewish Homeland.

Did this occur while the Labor Government was in power ?

The atrocities endured by the Jewish people over the centuries are never truly addressed by any one political party or country over the years.

The USA has policies in place to protect the Jewish people, but with the big ZERO in office, many (such as myself) are concerned about our well-being of Israel, but the USA is in grave danger of another attack and/or losing sovereignty.

Moreover, if we do not continue to protect and work with Israel, G-d's hand of protection will be completely removed from this country. Please, "PRAY FOR THE USA & ISRAEL".

She decided to prove to the Arab world that the British are greater friends of theirs than the Americans, and to do this, she started systematically to suffocate the Jewish National Home, a trust from the League of Nations.

Even when Jewish Palestine played a decisive role in the fight for the Middle East against the Axis army approaching Egypt, the British did not abandon the White Paper policy of 1939, and kept the doors to the Jewish Home closed, thus actively contributing to the massacre of the Jewish people in Europe.

In trying to play the Protector of Islam, a role in which fascist Italy was her rival, Britain made a series of dangerous mistakes. She organized the Arab League. Together they dislodged France from Syria and Lebanon. The British tried to impress the Arabs that they, and not the French are their friends. They also perpetrated all kinds of chicanery on the Jewish population of Palestine, and hunted down immigrants with the Royal Navy...
