Comedian David Baddiel has received antisemitic abuse on Telegram for criticising anti-vaxxers filmed ‘serving’ NHS staff with a copy of the Nuremberg Code.

One person described Mr Baddiel’s mother as a “parasite” while another called him a “Devil worshipper”.

A video of the stunt at Colchester Hospital, posted on Telegram on Wednesday, shows a group of protesters roaming in corridors.

“I will be serving you today. Nuremberg code if you’d like to take that,” one man was filmed telling hospital staff as he handed them brown envelopes he said were legal documents.

He also claimed to have proof that “coronavirus was an absolute plandemic hoax”.

The UK recorded its highest daily death rate since March 9 on Tuesday. Figures published Wednesday found a further 179 covid deaths logged within 28 days of a positive test.

Mr Baddiel, 57, expressed his outrage on Twitter on Wednesday evening and called on anti-vaxxers to stop referencing Nazi Germany.

“Nuremberg, my arse. WILL YOU FUCK OFF WITH THE NAZI GERMANY REFERENCES YOU FUCKING TWATS. Sorry, I may have got a tiny bit cross there,” he wrote.

His tweet sparked anger on Telegram, where one user wrote: “I tell you what will be coming home David ?? Your head in a box.”

Another wrote: “speculating some of David’s ancestors willingly got on the train?”

HOPE Not Hate warned in a letter to Telegram last week that the app was “home to the most extreme, genocidal and directly violent antisemitic content.”

A single channel promoting the New World Order conspiracy theory gained a staggering 90,000 followers since February, the anti-extremism charity found in a recent report.
