The Campaign Against Antisemitism plans to hold a demonstration outside Downing Street next Thursday, to mark a week following the Manchester terror attack.

 

A spokesperson for Campaign Against Antisemitism (CAA) said:

 

The time for dialogue, platitudes, and lip service has passed. Britain can no longer afford excuses while our Jewish community faces terror on our streets. On Thursday evening, we will be protesting outside Downing Street to demand action, not empty words.

 

Those murdered yesterday were simply going to synagogue to pray on the holiest day of the Jewish calendar. Their deaths were made inevitable by the radicalisation and Islamist extremism that successive governments have allowed to fester - ignoring warnings, tolerating incitement, and failing to act. If you reward terrorism, you get terrorism; if you appease the mob, the mob is emboldened.

 

Now Britain must show that it truly wants to keep its Jews safe. The government must ban extremist protests, hold police chiefs accountable, compel regulators to step up, and ensure universities and media accept responsibility for the environment of hatred they have tolerated. No more double standards: the mobs must be treated like those at Southport - with the full force of the law.

 

The blood of British Jews is on the hands of politicians who have appeased extremists, police chiefs who have failed to enforce the law, universities and media who have turned a blind eye, and regulators who have done too little for too long.

 

Downing Street must act. Not tomorrow, not after another attack - now.
