“Post-7 October, anti-Semitism has ‘crept into civil society’, including ‘the workplace, cultural spaces and even the NHS’. The chilling result is that Jews have ‘almost nowhere they can turn… where anti-Semitism does not seem present’.” – Brendan O’Neill NOWHERE TO GO UK Jews’ Wellbeing, Way of Life ‘Increasingly Challenged, Undermined’ by Antisemitism – Report: […]

Yeshiva World News, July 16, 2025 “This is about applying the same protections to Jews that are rightly afforded to other vulnerable groups. If we can’t get that right, then what does equality even mean?” A new report released Tuesday by the Board of Deputies of British Jews paints a troubling picture of rising […]
Brendan O’Neill Spiked, July 15, 2025 “The most valuable thing about the report is that it shows how institutionalised anti-Semitism has become.” ‘Anti-Semitism is a very light sleeper’, said Conor Cruise O’Brien. Indeed it is, and it has been stirred from its thin slumber these past two years. Since Hamas’s pogrom of 7 October […]
Lauren Smith The European Conservative, July 14, 2025 “… antisemitism is no longer shameful, but fashionable. Among certain sections of the progressive, pro-Palestine set in the West, it is a marker that someone is following trendy politics and parroting all the right slogans.” There was a time, not that long ago, when the word […]

Ynet News, Feb. 26, 2025 “This whitewashing keeps viewers ill-informed about Hamas and promotes sympathy for their deadly ideology. It signifies the institutional failure behind the BBC’s reporting of the Israel-Hamas conflict.” The BBC has been accused of “whitewashing” participants’ views in its controversial Gaza documentary by mistranslating references to “the Jews” and omitting praise […]
Rachel O’Donoghue Algemeiner, Feb. 18, 2025 “In a brazen display of false equivalence, Kuenssberg used the horrifying condition of the freed Israeli hostages as a springboard to push baseless allegations of abuse in Israeli prisons — a remark Herzog rightly called “outrageous” for its vile moral equivalence.” The media’s coverage of the release of the first […]
Neil Davenport Spiked, Feb. 26, 2025 “For the British establishment, Islam is treated less as a religion and more a racial badge. To attack Islamist extremism is supposedly to attack a ‘brown-skinned’ community – a notion that smothers debate and only deepens divides between Muslims and non-Muslims.” The BBC’s recent documentary about Gaza has been […]
Adam LeBor The Free Press, Feb. 24, 2025 “BBC bosses absolutely know that there is a systemic problem of bias at BBC Arabic, but the fact that they have not admitted it is just pure gaslighting of the Jewish community.” Abdullah Al-Yazouri, a 13-year-old boy living in the Gaza Strip, is a natural in front […]
