► The Grime artist Wiley is being investigated by police for making anti-Semitic remarks on social media where he has almost a million followers in total.
Understandably, the language he used has caused significant offence.
The 41-year-old posted a number of false conspiracy theories about Jewish people over a 24 hour period, comparing them to the Ku Klux Klan. He claimed they are at "war" with black people and even suggested they deserve to be shot.
The Home Secretary Priti Patel has since responded saying "The antisemitic posts from Wiley are abhorrent - social media companies must act much faster to remove such appalling hatred from their platforms."
Tessa Chapman spoke to Karen Pollock from the Holocaust Educational Trust and started by asking her how she felt when she read his comments.
