A jewish mother-of-four whose father fled Nazi Germany on the Kindertransport was 'devastated' to find a swastika on her garden gate on the sixth anniversary of his death.

Aviva Kaufmann, 52, from north-west London, was horrified when her husband made the discovery as he went to retrieve his bike yesterday.

Mrs Kaufmann, a maths teacher whose German-born grandparents, David and Ketty Goldschmidt, were murdered in Auschwitz, told the Mail: 'I am just so sad about it.

'When my father – Alfred Goldschmidt – fled Germany he had such a love for this country. We [our entire family] have grown up with such a love for this country.

'In England, I was able to get a good education and all those things Nazi Germany deprived my father of. But now I wonder will England be like that for my children?'
