The people protesting, many of them Jewish, are protesting against Starmer and the UK’s arming of Israel, a foreign government. They are not protesting against British Jews. It is Starmer here who is conflating British Jews with Israel - and doing the antisemites’ work for them.

I urge anyone thinking about protesting this weekend to recognise and respect the grief of British Jews.

This is a moment of mourning. It is not a time to stoke tension and cause further pain. It is a time to stand together.

We are a country that welcomes all people, no matter their faith, to stand under the same flag as neighbours and friends.

That is who we are and who we will always be. Hatred and violence will never win.
