Continuing this fascinating thread. I think it ended prematurely. We were just getting into the swing of things...

Agreed

Good to see finally thousands gathering for a protest against antisemitism, in London yesterday. About time.

Did they? That is good!

Yet when in Govt, she did nothing to limit the pro Palestinian marches.

Antisemitic hate crimes have escalated since then though - all serious politicians are starting to realise it’s time to take a stand against the marches as they appear to be flaming anti Jewish sentiment in the UK.

She regularly criticised the met for their policing of these marches and she supported the government's move to redefine extremism to bar the groups mobilising these protests. And she criticised the BBC for their framing of the marches and how it was fuelling antisemitism. It's not like she was home secretary, there was a limit to what she could achieve in her government roles.

She was Secretary of State for International Trade then Minister for Women and Equalities.

What did you expect her to do?
