A Jewish student at Birmingham University has been trolled with antisemitic abuse after she posted a photo of a poster of Hitler displayed on her campus.

Izzy Lenga, education officer at the Birmingham student union, posted the photo last week in order to highlight antisemitism.

The poster showed an image of the Nazi leader with the words “Hitler was right”.

Since then her twitter feed has been inundated with abusive messages and cartoons.
