Half of British Jews have considered leaving the UK amid a "staggering" rise in antisemitism

Not Jordan or Pakistan - this is London.

A new survey by the Campaign Against Antisemitism is being released.

According to CAA officials, it shows that nearly half of British Jews are considering leaving the country because of the huge increase in antisemitism. 

Binyomin Gilbert, engagement manager for the group, told LBC News that "we have seen a 1300% increase in anti-Semitism" since the October 7 pogrom.

The survey also shows that 69% of British Jews say they are less likely to show visible signs of their religion.

Moreover, "more than six in 10 British Jews have either personally experienced or have witnessed an anti-Semitic incident since October 7 or that they know somebody who has."

The survey was carried out between 12th and 17th November 2023, with a total of 3,744 responses.

Gilbert continued, "This is not a situation that can continue. We have seen week after week central London become a no go zone for Jews.

"We've seen mass criminality, we've seen glorification of terrorism, support for banned terrorist organisations like Hamas and, and incitement to racial, religious hatred against Jews.

"I think the sad truth is that British Jews currently do not feel safe in our capital city.

"And it's important that we now draw a line."

During the anti-Israel demonstrations two weeks ago, the Campaign Against Antisemitism observed:

Once again, the marches featured genocidal chants, Hamas headbands, antisemitic signs comparing Israel to Nazis and others caricaturing prominent minority politicians as coconuts, and the marchers who may not have engaged in these activities knowingly and readily marched alongside those who did. They are just as complicit.

We are also aware of Jewish families being targeted on their way out of synagogue and have received multiple reports of police having to escort congregants away in groups for their own safety.

Islamist extremists, the far-left, and the far-right were out on the streets, all on one day. What a day to be a Jew in London.
