Grzegorz Braun MEP has claimed in a radio interview that Jews engaged in ritual murders and that the gas chambers in Auschwitz were a “fake”

Braun, who stood in the Polish presidential election polling just over 6 per cent added on July 10 that the Auschwitz Museum was blocking research on the existence of the gas chambers to stop any challenge to the Holocaust narrative.

The interview with conservative radio Wnet ended abruptly after Braun’s remarks, with the interviewer saying “There really are limits”

Braun was then reported to the public prosecutor by MPs from the Left party for “Holocaust denial”, which in Poland is classified as a crime

He had previously gained notoriety with highly visual stunts such as his dousing of the Hanukkah menorah in the Polish parliament, the burning of the EU flag, taking down Ukrainian banners and targeting an LGBT exhibition

Braun’s presidential campaign was further marked by his storming into a maternity ward in a hospital in protest against an abortion carried out in the ninth month of pregnancy[…]
It was Braun’s alleged anti-Semitism that has caused all three right-wing groupings (European Conservatives and Reformists, Patriots for Europe, Europe of Sovereign Nations) in the European parliament to deny him entry into their ranks

Braun’s latest remarks were the first time he had openly ventured into alleged Holocaust denial territory
