Extract: Simon Wallfisch grew up in London as the grandson of an Auschwitz survivor who swore to never return to the country that murdered her parents and 6 million other Jews.

But more than 70 years after the Holocaust, Brexit has prompted Wallfisch and thousands of other Jews in Britain to apply for German citizenship, which was stripped from their ancestors by the Nazis during the Third Reich.

We must secure the existence of the Jews and a future for Jewish children

"This disaster that we call Brexit has led to me just finding a way to secure my future and my children's future," said Wallfisch, 36, a well-known classical singer and cellist who received his German passport in October.

"If the country behind the Holocaust is now one that welcomes the descendants of the victims, that's a good thing", said Maya Jacobs Lasker-Wallfisch, a 60-year-old London psychotherapist who is Simon's aunt

But Anita Lasker-Wallfisch, who lived through the horrors of the Holocaust, remained sceptical and pessimistic.

"Jewish people never feel secure," she said to her daughter and grandson, reminding them of her own past.

Attacks against British Jews have soared to record levels, a charity warned yesterday

A total of 892 anti-Semitism incidents were reported in the first six months of the year to the Community Security Trust – 10 per cent more than the total recorded for the whole of 2018, and the highest for any six-month period.

The charity, which protects the Jewish community, said the rise partly reflected the news being dominated by anti-Semitism in the Labour Party, which had prompted others to carry out copycat abuse, usually name-calling and racist posts on social media sites

By comparison, 810 anti-Semitic incidents were reported to the charity during 2018 as a whole.

Chief executive David Delew said: 'The problem is spreading across the country and online, it reflects deepening divisions in our society and it is causing increasing anxiety in the Jewish community.'

He added: 'It will take people of all communities and backgrounds standing together to turn this tide of hate around.'

Part of the increase is likely to be explained by improved recording of incidents and victims being more willing to come forward.

Assistant Chief Constable Mark Hamilton, the National Police Chiefs' Council spokesman on hate crime, said: 'There are still far too many who are prepared to act illegally, fuelled by global events, divisions in society or bigoted ideologies. It is always concerning to see indicators of increased hate crime
