Making the Labour party a safe place for Jewish people by eradicating antisemitic abuse from within the party
LAAS STATEMENT: “If Diane Abbott doesn’t regret her previous comments knowing the offence they caused and following her suspension from the party, then it’s difficult to see how she can remain in place, particularly with the explosion in anti-Jewish racism since October 7th.” 1/2
In the UK, antisemitism is now mainstream. Is it reversible? - Once whispered on the fringes, antisemitism now parades through Britain’s institutions in plain sight from Goldsmiths to Glastonbury @GoldsmithsUoL @glastonbury @DavidHirsh thejc.com/opinion/in-the…
The BBC’s mountainous ignorance, hidden behind a smug air of superiority thejc.com/opinion/the-bb…
A crass yet apt illustration of where we are. The Jewish community’s most painful, tragic history has become a stolpersteine - a stepping stone - in Palestinianism. It has been weaponised against us and used as a prop in the dehumanisation of Jews and Israel. The memory of the…
Germany’s citizens are, not without missteps, navigating tricky questions of history, identity and geopolitics in their concerns about Israel’s war in Gaza. Its politicians have some catching up to do econ.st/3THvD2N Illustration: Peter Schrank

“@LBC should apologise, and take @mrjamesob off air.” - VP @AndrewGilbert1 See our full statement below 👇
Credulous or calculating? @LBC's @mrjamesob reads antisemitic ‘blood libel’ about Jewish children live on air jewishnews.co.uk/james-obrien-s…
I’m glad that LBC deleted the clipped segment of @mrjamesob reading out a racist email, as if it was legitimate debate But perhaps he should apologise for broadcasting this in the first place, and sanitising it for his audience as “both sides” balance.
I’m sorry to say that @mrjamesob broadcasted a racist fantasy about “the Jewish problem”. “Shabbat School” is not a thing and there is no teaching that Jewish lives are worth more. Jewish children aren’t taught that people are “cockroaches who must be crushed”, but this idea…
Disgraceful. 84% of rapes in @DurhamPolice area go unsolved, the overall crime rate is above national average and criminal damage and arson is double the national average, but they have time to harass someone for going to Israel. I’ll be raising this with the govt.
My story on how influencer mum @MummyisT was referred to Prevent and had police knocking on her door because she made a trip to Israel. Full story below.
This is appalling. It is completely unacceptable. @LBC must deal with it immediately and ensure nothing like this can happen again. I’m sure they’d be taking the presenter off air if racist nonsense was read out about any other minority
For James O'Brien to uncritically read out this outrageous claim as the truth is irresponsible and dangerous journalism. At a time of heightened antisemitism when synagogues and Jewish schools require increased security, the threat created by such unsubstantiated claims is real.…
BBC to hire boss to deal with Gaza documentary backlash: - New executive with potential six-figure salary will be responsible for rigorous checks to prevent future ‘catastrophic failures’ telegraph.co.uk/news/2025/07/2…
“Mum’s trip to Israel triggered a referral to anti-radicalisation police” A door knock from a Prevent referral is incredibly rare and would require multi-agency consensus. So for this to happen without any evidence shows either a failure of normal procedure or a bypassing of it

Lord Ian Austin: ‘The BBC’s failure to understand the genocidal racism that fuels Hamas’s terrorism means it cannot be trusted to report on the war between Israel and Hamas accurately.’ @LordIanAustin @bbc @BBCNews @lisanandy thesun.co.uk/news/35927998/…
On Thursday in London a horrible woman attacked Jews outside a Jewish cafe. She interrogated a Jewish teenager with “You Israel?” and then physically attacked the table. This is violent hate. EXACTLY what this movement is about.
Sebastian Usher is the BBC’s Middle East analyst and reporter He shared content from a virulently racist doctor who said Jews run the west. Now he is promoting Bassem Youssef, who claimed that Jews control the media
This isn’t just a BBC Middle East analyst retweeting a comment about watching a controversial show about Gaza on another channel. One deemed too biased for the BBC. But it’s also the BBC’s Middle East analyst supporting a tweet from a controversial doctor arrested for taking…
THREAD: @Channel4 recently aired a Gaza film co-produced by a man who glorified terrorists — including the shooter of 7 Jews on Holocaust Memorial Day.
Horrid attack on the streets of London. A young lady was eating at a Jewish deli on Baker Street. This woman allegedly came up and asked if the restaurant was kosher and if the young woman was Jewish. When she replied yes, this is what happened. Her food was thrown on her.…
More than half of all Jewish teachers are reporting antisemitism in their schools. And 51% of them state that their schools did not deal with complaints adequately. That’s before we talk about the impact it’s having on pupils. I know that I have made numerous complaints about…

An Israeli Jewish student from @SussexUni wrote to them fearful that her graduation was going to feel intimidating and scary because of this. They said they’d do nothing. So now Israeli and Jewish graduates will feel threatened and unwelcome on their special day. Disgusting.
