How do prevent the rise of anti Semitic feeling in the UK?

Will the continuous marches in London lead to an environment where anti semitism becomes acceptable? There has been a massive rise in hate crime against Jews and surely in the UK we have a duty to prevent any platform which may lead to unjustified hatred of a group in the UK?

I feel we should feel pride we have a diverse society with a while range of ethnicities and religions but we should always act to encourage social cohesion by not allowing events that could contain messages of hate.

Although the support of the Palestinian people is absolutely reasonable in terms of free speech in a democratic society and it is reasonable to comment on the actions of the Israeli state at times the marches in a lot of major British cities have the danger of including terrorist apologists.

Is Gay the one who said that Death to the Jews might be ok dependent on context?

@noblegiraffe I believe that is the Gay you are referring too.

No, think the context one was from Penn - Elizabeth something

Oh actually you're right it was!

@Trulywonderful I believe they have lost a lot of backing due to her comments. Especially money from abroad. www.cnn.com/2023/12/27/business/lauder-business-school-harvard-university/index.html

Yes

Every time I see or use the word context now I think of that moment

Not sure I will ever stop doing that. It was a terrible thing to say and sums up many people's views about protecting Jewish teenagers from prejudice on campus

I mean these are kids for fucksake. Some are only 18 and this is likely their first time living away from home. She had a duty of care to those children.

I agree with this.

OK, so now Jewish people need to be on a list of some sort AGAIN

Also have we been seeing Jewish doctors in the NHS or elsewhere on in fairly large numbers post support for violence against anyone, like we saw NHS doctors cheering on the pogrom straight after it. No we bloody well have not.

Seriously these people are sick individuals that like to twist what Jewish people subjected to on social media into their own storyline or something

If I remember rightly a privately donating billionaire said they wouldn't get any more millions of him either until they sorted out their problem

Anyway two gone and one still left to do the right thing an resign

Hopefully this will now put added pressure on her to do the right thing. However as we all saw when questioned about prejudice on campus none of these women are keen on doing the right thing.

When it comes to hate speech like that against any group, the only thing that should depend on context is the specific disciplinary pathway used to remove the person saying it from that place or organisation - in terms of what form the GTFO is written on.

Just seen this and he made me laugh about it at least

This is another sick misuse of holocaust a photo

Taghrid Al-Mawed Layton; X username @Alyaa53827320, is the chief executive officer (CEO) and trustee of British charity the Palestinian Refugee Project (PRP).

They have been saying for Jewish people to go back to Europe on many posts too

Plus when telling Jewish people when challenged they should leave Israel and go back to Europe

A right charming person this one

@Trulywonderful 😂Some of the them are so ludicrous, but it's hilarious watching the antisemites try to seriously agree with her. She's pretty much had her arse handed to her though. As did this recent winner of a Newcastle Uni award for ‘contributions to race equality and combatting discrimination’. Picking a fight with the Auschwitz Museum

@etmoiandme

Oh I know that one

She has constantly said iffy things about Jewish people not just Israel

Definitely one of those Jews run the world conspiracy types judging by some of here comments

She doesn't see Jewish people as an ethic minority group either. Just white people from Europe. I remember her making comments that suggested this a couple of years ago.

I think she is probably one of the most obnoxious anti anti racists about at the moment. I watched her on a debate show and they had to keep telling her to shut up because she wouldn't let others have their time to speak. Even when she did would interrupt every other sentence. Likes to here the sound of her own voice that one.

@Trulywonderful Yes it might be the same thing I saw her on a while back. Basically talked at and over everyone, and just came across like she'd ingested a very unsafe dose of CRT.

I am genuinely shocked. There's a new film starring Anthony Hopkins as Sir Nicholas Winton and Warner Bros and others have removed any mention of Jews from the description.

From a film about Sir Nicholas Winton saving Jewish children from the Holocaust.

What. Is Jew now a dirty word?

@noblegiraffe WTF! That's so depressing. They must think if they say "Jewish" no-one will want to SECURE YOUR COPY. Although we're at the stage now I almost feel thankful they didn't call them Zionist children.

Central European Children...
Wow speechless, are they trying to erase

I will be complaining...

Omg that’s outrageous. I’ve seen it a brilliant film explicit and clear in the film that the children are all Jewish as is Nicholas Winton.

People are saying but some children were not Jewish. However as the majority were this stinks. The could have said predominantly Jewish or mostly Jewish or mentioned all the groups the nazis thought as lesser people and these children were from

However the chose to talk like these were just random European Children

Apparently some other media but not all have done this too. It is because Warner brothers spoke like this in a dodgy press release

So I think after the film Golda belly flopping they are scared this will too. You know what with all Jewish people being associated with Israel and everything!!!!

This one should know better:

Zarina Sophie Shaikh is a Consultant Surgeon at The Royal Cornwall Hospital. She also denies the rape of Israeli women by Hamas.

Amazingly Dr. Shaikh is an Executive Board Member & Diversity and Inclusion Representative at the HCSA & a Subcommittee Member Guidelines & Protocols at BAHNO Head & Neck.

You will see at the bottom of the post that on top of saying there is no evidence of rape during the pogrom, she says the antisemitism is the murder of Palestinians

(She can't spell Palestinians but who am I to correct that mistake on a post!)

How are public sector employees not sanctioned when they use SM to deliver anti Semitic messages?.We have had a porter at my local hospital sacked (quite rightly) for posting a series of Islamophobic posts so why are often senior medics allowed to put forward views that essentially deny the events of October 7th?

I feel there is an element of anti semitism being the allowed racism which is too my mind incomrehensible. Perhaps because some Jews have white skin colour there are those on the far left (not looking at you Dianne Abbott) who would deny Jews any claim to racism as it is reserved for those of physically distinct ethnicity?

I was listening to David Baddiel and his participation in an anti anti semitis m march and he said he was strongly offended by having a stream of social media abuse basically saying Jews living comfortable lives in the UK have no right to be offended by anti Semitic tropes when civilians are being killed in Gaza.

Again to some extent I think appallingly and semitism is the 'allowed' racism especially from the progressive 'right on' side of politics.

From your post on the other thread saying the Kindertransport memorial has been defaced with pro-Palestinian graffiti, it seems there were enough Jews involved to be worth targeting with vandalism, but not enough Jews involved that they are worth mentioning when promoting a film about them.
