This needs to be called out.

You may not agree with me, but you will always know where you stand with me. Today in Billericay, a heckler tried to shout me down as I spoke about the normalisation of hatred towards Jews. I did not back down, because it needs to be said. British Jews are being targeted and too many people are pretending this is the same experience of other minorities. This lady implied Muslims are being similarly targeted. This is simply not true. Let's be honest about what is happening. Certain groups (in particular but not solely Islamic Extremists) are creating a climate of fear and intimidation that is normalising Jew hatred. I will never stand for that. Governments have spent too long hand-wringing, making excuses and hoping it would go away. It is time to call this what it is: a national emergency in our attitude, our urgency and our response. I will always engage with people who disagree with me. That is politics. But there is a difference between argument and intimidation. Shouting does not make a bad case good. It's done to silence others. And it certainly does not change the truth. The truth is that British Jews have been made to feel less safe in their own country. Our country. They are being singled out, threatened and harassed in ways that should shame everyone in public life. If we do not stand up now and stop this rise in antisemitism, then why bother saying "Never Again" at Holocaust Memorial Day? Because this is how it starts. I am not prepared to play along with the pretence that this is normal, or manageable, or just another example of tension between groups. It really is not. It is targeted hatred and it is getting worse. So my message is simple. Not here. Not in Britain. And not on our watch. We need to stop the hand-wringing and start doing the right thing. That means standing with British Jews openly, unapologetically and without fear.
Incredible clip: Kemi Badenoch takes apart a hard-left, pro-Palestine agitator, stands her ground, and makes clear she’ll defend British Jews without apology. Serious steel on show here. Don’t mess with Kemi 💪🇬🇧
Wow Polanski calls comments by Muslims who call out Jew-Hatred within the Muslim community “inflammatory” and rejects their comments Let me get this straight, he’s saying Muslims should NOT call out Jew-Hatred with the Muslim community? Despicable man.
'As a very famous Jew once said "love your neighbour as yourself".' Caller Paul tells @ClareFoges that 'we won't be judged by being Israeli or Palestinian', and that 'we need to begin treating each other as humans'.
