“Hedi Fried is dead. The last thing she had to endure was seeing the promise from the prime minister to be a lie, that the Nazis won in the end. Shame on you, Ulf.”

Orden räcker inte till. Rösten stockar sig. Hédi Fried var klok, modig och snäll. Hon var lågmäld och värdig, uthållig och urstark. Hennes bidrag till att göra Sverige till ett bättre land är omätligt. Jag är ödmjukt stolt över att ha varit hennes vän. Vila i frid, käraste Hédi! pic.twitter.com/RNtpauSG58
