To the rhythm of the gunfire and the voices of concern

Today, I was all set to fall down a rabbit hole. I had a nicely nasty narrative planned, of strange scritching sounds and tortures and people imprisoned in attics.

Then the BBC reminded me that today marks 60 years since Auschwitz was liberated. And suddenly tales of torture and imprisonment didn't seem so funny after all.

Today, the people who lived and died in Auschwitz deserve a thought. The other 364 days of the year, we can remember that we're still doing it.
