MPs: Britain must stop taxpayer cash funding hatred in Palestinian schools
Calls for the UK to finally act to stop anti-Jewish hatred being spread in PA textbooks intensify following a report which found examples of antisemitism in the school books.
By JEWISH NEWS REPORTER
June 22, 2021, 4:31 pm  
Britain needs to act to make sure taxpayer money does not fund anti-Jewish hatred in Palestinian textbooks, MPs and communal figures have said.

The call comes after the long-delayed publication of a EU-commissioned study into Palestinian Authority textbooks, which found examples of incitement and antisemitic stereotyping of Jews.


While the report’s forward states the books adhere to UNESCO standards, it also found examples of “ambivalent – sometimes hostile – attitudes towards Jews and the characteristics they attribute to the Jewish people.”

A recent Jewish News investigation revealed how Britain spent an estimated £105 million on Palestinian education professionals, including on the salaries of teachers who write the textbooks, over five years.

The UK and the PA have an agreement which commits the PA to curriculum reform. In 2017-8, ministers deemed that the agreement was met, but admitted that the contents of the curriculum were not taken into account.

Ministers have also refused requests to publish the government’s annual internal reviews of the PA’s compliance with the “curriculum reform” target.

In RE textbooks, the review found “frequent use of negative attributions in relation to the Jewish people in, for example, textbook exercises suggest a conscious perpetuation of anti-Jewish prejudice.”

One such example asked students to discuss the “repeated attempts by the Jews to kill the Prophet” and then asked them to think of “other enemies of Islam.”

Another text “portray[ed] the ‘Jews’ as deceptive, cowardly and aggressive protagonists”, which also left it open to students to suggest “a violent solution to the conflict with the ‘Jewish Zionist occupation’”.

MELANIE PHILLIPS: Meddling with Israel’s security, Biden is also dangerously interfering with UK governance
Such interference is based on an ignorant and dangerously partisan view that, under the guise of advancing peace, is in fact a powerful incentive to further violence and aggression.
srael isn’t the only country that’s having to cope with a U.S. administration threatening to undermine its security.
President Joe Biden last week ordered a senior American diplomat to issue a severe formal rebuke to Britain for the way it is dealing with the European Union over Northern Ireland.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6j4MZ6uQh3s&t=1s

Sen. Ted Cruz: How Biden Has Undermined Israel

Accordingly, Yael Lempert, the acting head of the U.S. mission to the United Kingdom, issued a diplomatic reprimand to Britain’s Brexit minister, Lord Frost, and delivered a veiled threat that America’s proposed trade deal with Britain depended upon Boris Johnson’s government acceding to Biden’s demands.

The noxiousness of this rebuke—more commonly issued to adversaries than to an ally—doesn’t just derive from America interfering in the policies of a sovereign country. It’s also because, just as with Israel, this interference is based on an ignorant and dangerously partisan view that, under the guise of advancing peace, is in fact a powerful incentive to further violence and aggression.Subscribe to The JNS Daily Syndicate by email and never miss our top stories

Lempert told Frost that Biden wanted the United Kingdom to settle its dispute with the E.U. even if that meant making “unpopular compromises.”


She suggested that in his robust negotiations with the E.U., Frost was threatening to undermine the 1998 Northern Ireland “Good Friday” peace agreement.

The row centers on part of the Brexit deal with the E.U. known as the Northern Ireland Protocol, which resulted from the British government’s desperate attempt to untie a Gordian knot created by the Good Friday Agreement.

That agreement brought to an end years of terrorist violence between Northern Ireland’s majority Protestants and its Catholic minority, and against the British who had tried to keep the peace in this province of the United Kingdom.

Crucially, it involved an open border between Northern Ireland and the Republic of Ireland.

The agreement thus created a delicate balance between its guarantee to Northern Ireland’s Protestants that the island of Ireland would not be unified without their consent, and the simultaneous impression for Catholic Republicans of one seamless Irish territory of which the open border was a key feature.

Since the Republic of Ireland remains in the E.U. while Northern Ireland left it along with the rest of the United Kingdom, the problem arose of trade checks with the province that the E.U. would now require.

In order to avoid creating a “hard” border between the Irish Republic and Northern Ireland, the British government decided instead to leave the province inside the E.U.’s economic “single market.” This meant making the required E.U. checks on goods traffic between Northern Ireland and the British mainland.

This effectively created an invisible economic border down the middle of the Irish Sea, thus abandoning Northern Ireland’s Protestant Unionists to an anomalous limbo land. The only way through this political minefield was for people of good faith in Brussels and Dublin to adopt the lightest of touches to border trade controls.

According to Frost, the E.U. has been insisting instead on an over-the-top application of these controls, thus risking reigniting violent Protestant agitation.

Into this complex and potentially incendiary situation has waded Joe Biden. He is insisting that Britain cave into the E.U.’s demand for the protocol to be applied to the letter on the basis that this is needed to preserve the Good Friday Agreement. What he fails to grasp is that, according to a key architect of that peace deal, Lord Trimble, the protocol itself subverts and undermines that agreement.

Accordingly, he wrote this week, the E.U.’s false claim that it was protecting the agreement in its fight with Britain was stirring up Protestant anger and rising tensions on the streets.

Yet Biden is actually backing that claim. Far from promoting peace, what he is advocating will instead further increase the risk of renewed sectarian violence in the province.

The similarities with his approach to Israel are striking. Over Northern Ireland, he is blackmailing Britain into abandoning its legal and moral obligations to the province’s Protestants and imperiling their security.

As seen in the recent hostilities between Israel and Hamas, when the United States demanded an Israeli ceasefire even while rocket barrages from Gaza were still being fired at Israeli towns, Biden also tries to pressure Israel into undermining its security and its defense of its people.

His administration’s approach to both these flashpoints is based on a chronic failure to acknowledge reality.

Emotionally invested in Northern Ireland through his own Irish Catholic ancestry, Biden twists the facts to the Catholic narrative and totally ignores Britain’s legal and moral duty towards the Protestant community.

While he personally supports Israel, the administration he has created refuses to acknowledge the existential nature of Palestinian rejectionism. These officials view the Arab war against Israel instead through the distorting prism of moral equivalence, which twists the facts to indulge the Palestinians who aim to destroy it.

Just as Biden’s interference threatens to undermine the Good Friday Agreement, his administration’s interference in the Middle East by re-empowering the Palestinians, appeasing Iran, and trying to drive a wedge between Israel and Saudi Arabia threatens to undermine the most important development for peace in the region for a century: the Abraham Accords.

Indeed, according to The Washington Free Beacon, the Biden administration won’t even use this term, ordaining that the accords be referred to only as “normalization agreements.”

This petulance and spite towards a historic agreement that has made a mockery of the Foggy Bottom consensus on Israel and the Palestinians tells us that the Biden administration’s attitude to the Middle East is based not on realism or pragmatism, but on emotion and ideology.

It shows that the administration will deny hard facts in order to preserve fantasies, such as Palestinian “victimhood” and the illusory two-state solution, that define today’s progressive identity.

Israel itself is currently in the throes of unprecedented political convulsions. On Sunday, Benjamin Netanyahu’s 12-year stint as prime minister is set to end when an improbable coalition of rightists, leftists, centrists and the Arab Ra’am Party is due to be sworn in as Israel’s government.

With no one able to say with certainty that such a coalition will even endure, it’s impossible to predict what its policies will be. No one can say whether the rightists will abandon principle and allow themselves to be held hostage by the left; or whether the left will swallow right-wing policies to stay in power; or whether the Ra’am leader really will abandon his Islamist holy war against Israel and settle for the pragmatic priority of improving the lot of Israel’s Arab citizens.

Despite these unknowables, there are hopes in the progressive world that the very existence of such a coalition will soften Western hostility to Israel and break down barriers with the Biden administration.

Yet whatever the coalition does, Western hostility won’t dissipate because it is based on an irrational hatred that treats any concession Israel may make as merely a further sign of its innate perfidy.

As for the Biden administration, stuffed with officials who either hate or are indifferent to Israel and the Jewish people, the only Israeli policies that would break down such barriers are those that would leave Israel twisting in the genocidal wind.

In Northern Ireland the Republican Sinn Féin Party, which has a history of rank anti-Semitism, promotes the left-wing Israel demonization agenda, while the Republic of Ireland is one of the most extreme anti-Israel countries in Europe. In stark contrast, Northern Ireland’s Protestants have long been strong supporters of Israel. They identify with the Israelis’ struggle against existential foes, global disdain and perfidious “friends.”

With the Biden administration’s perverse interference in their own affairs, further endangering their security while doing the same to the Israelis, these two causes are now joined at the hip against an America that has lost the geopolitical plot.

Palestine car convoy organiser: ‘We don’t hate the Jewish community’

Jeremy Corbyn has sparked renewed fury after telling Cambridge University’s debating society that former Jewish MP Luciana Berger “was not hounded out of the Party.”

Appearing before the Cambridge Union the ex-Labour leader was responding to a comment by the society’s President Joel Rosen who had asked him what he had done to stop the Liverpool Wavertree MP from being “hounded out” of the party.


Corbyn’s responded by saying: “Luciana was not hounded out of the party.

“She unfortunately decided to resign from the party.”


The Islington MP then added he was not suggesting Berger was wrong to quit Labour.

He recalled how he had appointed her as his shadow minister for mental health and said they had worked well together.

Corbyn added:”We gave her all the support she needed and deserved.”

The ex-leader said people had been prosecuted as a result of the abuse Berger was forced to endure.

But he then added:”She received appalling abuse, Diane Abbott received appalling abuse – and so did Dawn Butler.”

At one stage Corbyn was given the opportunity to reflect on his meetings in the past with terrorist sympathisers and Holocaust deniers.

But sources at the debate said rather than offer genuine regret he merely repeated his regular claim to be a committed anti-racist.

Asked about his reluctance to adopt the IHRA definition of antisemitism in full, Corbyn denied he did not listen to the Jewish community while he was leader.

He repeated his concerns about examples in the definition that are alleged to stifle debate on Israel and the Palestinians.
Corbyn said the debate over Palestine “should and never would I hope descend into any antisemitism on those issues.”

Another Jewish Labour member Jack Lubner, was also applauded by many in the audience, as he outlined his frustrations at Corbyn’s past record.

Rosen told Jewish News after the debate: “After five years enduring an institutionally antisemitic party I was struck that Mr Corbyn didn’t take the opportunity to take even a modicum of responsibility for the unlawful discrimination and harassment perpetuated by the party he led.”

Another attendee said that despite being an overwhelming non-Jewish audience there was considerable anger amongst most in the room over Corbyn’s failure to comprehend any past failings.

Jeremy Corbyn speaking at the debate
Elsewhere in the debate Rosen recalled his own experiences of being a Labour Party member and allegations of antisemitic conduct from party members.

He said for wearing a kippah he feared he would be subjected to harassment and abuse when attending Labour members.

At one stage Rosen recalled the words of Andrew Murray, chief of staff at the Unite union, who said Corbyn did not understand antisemitism properly.

Corbyn said he represented many Jews in his Islington constituency and that they were among his supporters.

Asked how he reconciled the “lived experiences” of Jewish members in Labour, Corbyn said he had set up the party’s governance and legal unit to tray to deal with these issues.

Rosen then read out Andrew Murray’s assessment of the left-wing failure on antisemitism and the struggle of those such as Corbyn to view Jews in the same was as other minorities.

“I don’t agree with Andrew’s characterisation of what he perceives my views to be. He’s never had that discussion with me. He knows me quite well and I was surprised to read that in his book. ”

Corbyn said it was “unfair” to suggest he did not understand the Jewish community.

He said:”I represent a very mixed constituency – included within that many Jewish people.

“Within that would be many Jewish people – both those who would be followers roughly of the position of the Board of Deputies, and followers of Jewish Socialist Group, Jewish Voice For Labour – a very large number of people, more in Hackney than my area from the Charedi community, who actually do suffer serious poverty.”

Corbyn also claimed he had inherited a “dysfunctional party” that was poor at tackling antisemitism when he became leader.

He said this was why he appointed Baroness Chakrabarti to conduct her report.

Corbyn that said “it is hard to track down” some of those who hide behind false names on social media to abuse people. He added this made it hard to determine if they were Labour members.

Corbyn added: “No antisemitic or racist stuff is ever done in my name. I would not tolerate or never allow it.

“Let’s get that clear.

Strictly-Orthodox leaders condemn Chief Rabbi and ‘pro-Zionist’ rallies
Rabbinical figures, many from the Union of Orthodox Hebrew Congregations, adopt a tone similar to Neturei Karta in opposing those who lobby the government to support Israel.
By JEWISH NEWS REPORTER
May 31, 2021, 9:59 am  
Prime Minister Boris Johnson with Chief Rabbi Ephraim Mirvis and the Downing Street Chief of Staff, Dan Rosenfield.
Fourteen strictly-Orthodox rabbis have signed an explosive open letter condemning Jews who join “pro-Zionist” rallies and opposing those who lobby the government to support Israel.
The notice, backed by a number of rabbis from the Union of Orthodox  Hebrew Congregations (UOHC), has appeared in some synagogues in London and Manchester. It condemns “provocative actions and public demonstrations by the Zionists, which can only create antagonism between our communities”.

Last week a delegation led by Chief Rabbi Ephraim Mirvis held a meeting with Prime Minister Boris Johnson at Downing Street. At the meeting, Marie van der Zyl, President of the Board of Deputies, asked the government to call on social media companies to adopt the IHRA definition of antisemitism, which includes anti-Zionism, and requested Ofcom monitor firms’ adherence to that standard.

The 14 strictly-Orthodox rabbis, in a tone not unlike the vehemently anti-Israel Neturei Karta sect, wrote: “We were shocked to learn that it was widely publicised over the media channels that the Charedi Jews in England have some connection with the provocations against the non-Jewish countries by the Zionists in the Holy Land and in the rest of the world.

“The notion that anti-Zionism is antisemitism is simply untrue; many great rabbis today and in past generations have been against Zionism. The Jewish people have lived in many countries over the past 2,000 years, and having their own state is not intrinsic to their identity. One who opposes the current State of Israel does not necessarily oppose the Jewish people.”

The letter concludes:”For many years, we have lived peacefully and safely alongside all our neighbours; may God help that this continue. Whoever takes part in the above-mentioned actions ( joining “pro-Zionist” rallies and lobbying the UK government to support Israel) does not represent us.”

The letter’s signatories are Rabbi Elyakim Schlessinger, head of Yeshivas Haramah; Rabbi Boruch Chuna Greenfeld, head of the Bobov-45 Yeshiva and Rabbinic Judge at UOHC; Rabbi Shlomo Labin, Zidichover Rebbe; Rabbi Shmuel Binyomin Krauss, Rabbi of Beis Shlomo Aryeh; Rabbi Naftoli Pinchus Englander, Rabbinic Judge at UOHC; Rabbi Moshe Yitzchok Luntzer, Rabbinic Judge at Satmar; Rabbi Eliezer Mordechai Stolzberg, Rabbinic Judge at UOHC and Satmar; Rabbi Yaakov Yehoshua Brander, Head of Kollel Horaah; Rabbi Yaakov Binyomin Menachem Marmorstein, Rabbi of Ohel Moshe Synagogue; Rabbi Eliezer Schlessinger, Head of Yeshivas Haramah; Rabbi Yaakov Dovid Domb, Rabbi of the Tehillos Yoel Synagogue; Rabbi Eliezer Yomtov Lipa Braun, Rabbi of Nitra and Rabbinic Judge at UOHC; Rabbi Isaac Rosenbaum, Strazhnitzer Rebbe and Rabbi Yechezkel Rappoport, Rosh Yeshiva of Tiferes Yisroel.

Royal Free Hospital investigates ‘cutthroat gesture to Jewish patient’
Hampstead hospital looking into allegations that a staff member wearing a Palestine flag made death-threat sign at a Jewish woman.
By JEWISH NEWS REPORTER
May 26, 2021, 2:29 pm
The Royal Free Hospital is investigating after a staff member allegedly made a cutthroat death-threat gesture to a Jewish patient.

The patient attended the hospital for a blood test when she allegedly noticed the health professional wearing a Palestine flag on their jacket and a badge which said: “Stop killing our children.” 

The patient claims she asked for a different person to take her bloods, but while walking away the staff member “swiped her finger across her throat.”
The incident, which is said to have happened on Tuesday morning, has since been widely publicised on WhatsApp

The alleged victim has not been identified and no witnesses have yet come forward to substantiate her claim.

A hospital spokesperson told Jewish News the allegations were being investigated and taken “extremely seriously” but that it had not received a formal complaint.

“We do not tolerate racist or antisemitic behaviour of any kind, from anybody on our premises,” said a spokeswoman for the Trust.

“The Royal Free London is proud of the rich diversity of the patients that we serve and we are taking these allegations extremely seriously. Although we have not received a formal complaint, we will investigate this matter thoroughly.

“We would urge anybody who experiences racist or antisemitic abuse in any of our hospitals to report it immediately to a member of our security team or to the patient advice and liaison service (PALS)”.

It comes after a surge of antisemitic incidents in recent weeks, many connected to increased tensions in Israel and Gaza.
The Royal Free Hospital, in Hampstead, serves a large Jewish population.

Nine police officers were injured and missiles were thrown amid efforts to disperse crowds outside the Israeli Embassy in London.

Thousands of people marched through the capital on Saturday to the gates of the embassy in Kensington, while protests took place in other cities across the UK and Ireland opposing Israel’s actions against Hamas rockets.

Nine people were arrested on suspicion of violent disorder in London, the Metropolitan Police said.

A further four were arrested on suspicion of breaching the Health Protection Regulations, the force added.

The Met said small pockets of disorder had followed a largely peaceful demonstration.


Rioters push a smoking recycling bin towards police during the demonstration.
Superintendent Jo Edwards, in charge of the policing operation, said: “We once again saw police come under fire from missiles and several were injured as a result of this. It is totally unacceptable and I wish those officers a speedy recovery.

“Throughout the day, officers sought to engage with people who had gathered to demonstrate, and encourage them to disperse to help protect themselves and others during this public health crisis.

“Where this approach did not work and officers were met with hostility, they took enforcement action.”

Friend of Hamas and former Labour leader Jeremy Corbyn appeared alongside the Palestinian ambassador to the UK at the rally.

Demonstrators, some wearing Saddam Hussein t-shirts, chanted “free, free Palestine”, and held banners calling for an end to the bombing of the territory by Israeli forces.

A temporary stage was set up on Kensington High Street and organisers urged people to keep moving down the road as numbers continued to swell.

Other speakers addressing the crowds included former shadow home secretary Diane Abbott, Labour MP Zarah Sultana and rapper Lowkey.

Crowds chanted “oh, Jeremy Corbyn” and threw roses as the former opposition leader took to the stage.

Stephen Silverman, director of investigations and enforcement at Campaign Against Antisemitism, said: “Those marching through London claimed to be there to champion justice, but clearly they had no qualms marching alongside far-right, Islamist and far-left extremists who were openly calling for the massacre of Jews, waving antisemitic placards and flaunting terrorist emblems.

“We have been contacted by British Jews who were terrified by these events. We are reviewing the evidence with our lawyers and will be speaking with the police where appropriate.”

The UK’s Jewish community is on high security alert amid heightened tensions in Jerusalem.

Writing to Jewish organisations this week, the Community Security Trust said it has “taken reports of a small number of antisemitic incidents that appear to be related to the situation” in Israel and urged caution over the coming days.

This comes after hundreds of Palestinian demonstrators were injured and numerous Israeli police were hospitalised in violent clashes in Jerusalem this week.

Citing numerous demonstrations across the UK over the weekend against the clashes in Jerusalem, the CST said it is concerned about “increased anger and tension amongst UK anti-Israel groups and activists may in turn lead to a heightened risk of antisemitic activity directed at the UK Jewish community”.

Outlining there is no “specific intelligence” about any planned activities, the CST said its concern is a “general assessment including past experience in which antisemitic incidents tend to increase during periods of heightened tension in Israel”.

It urged communal organisations to follow security advice, including locking gates, reporting anyone conducting “hostile reconnaissance” near communal buildings, and challenging suspicious individuals when needed.

CST also urged shuls, schools and other groups to call 999 in an emergency, and then CST’s number 0800 032 3263.

Sadiq Khan re-elected London mayor, thanks Jewish ‘friends and supporters’
Labour politician defeated Tory challenger Shaun Bailey for a second term in charge of City Hall, saying he has 'not stopped engaging with and listening to' the Jewish community

Labour’s Sadiq Khan has thanked “friends and supporters in the Jewish community” after winning a second term as London’s mayor by beating Conservative rival Shaun Bailey.

The 51 year-old, who became the first Muslim mayor of a European capital city when he was elected to the role five years ago, failed to match his record-breaking 2016 poll vote this time around.


Tory candidate Bailey performed better than expected in an election campaign dominated by the impact of the Covid-19 pandemic, as Khan secured a 280,000 majority.

Vote totals for the mayoral contest across the capital showed Khan attracting 1,013,721 votes, while Bailey had 893, 051.

Speaking to Jewish News, victorious Khan said: “I want to pay tribute to the many Jewish Londoners who are part of my team.

“And I am proud that so many in the community continued to support me as I campaigned to become mayor again this time around.

“It meant so much to be that the first event I did as mayor in 2016 was Yom Hashoah.

“Since then I have not stopped engaging with and listening to the Jewish community, over their concerns, and their successes.

“I have campaigned to be a mayor for all Londoners.

“The contribution of Jewish Londoners is one of the reasons we are one of the greatest cities in the world.”

Khan was seen as the favourite throughout the campaign but he failed to win more than 50 per cent of first-round votes as Bailey increased the Tory vote share by 1.6 per cent.

The final result, including second preferences, saw Khan secure 55. 2 per cent of the vote – while Bailey got 44.8.

A breakdown of the mayoral vote in the individual constituencies in the capital showed that Khan narrowly beat Bailey in Barnet and Camden, with the Labour mayor securing 67, 610 and the Conservative getting 65, 822 votes.

In neighbouring Brent and Harrow, Bailey secured a surprise victory over Khan on first preference voted.

The Green Party’s Sian Berry came third, while the Liberal Democrats’ Luisa Porritt was fourth.

Khan had last month told Jewish News of his intention to visit Israel in his second term as mayor.

He had also stressed his close working relationship with the mayor of Tel Aviv during the pandemic, saying he regularly turned to Ron Huldai for advice on combating negative publicity around the Covid vaccine.

Bailey had been supported by the Conservative Friends of Israel organisation throughout his campaign – and had also vowed to visit the Jewish state if he won.

It was dedicated in honour of the Duke of Cambridge’s trip to Israel in June 2018 for what was the first official visit by a senior royal to the country.
Magen David Adom UK chief executive Daniel Burger said it will be “very special to see an ambulance bearing the name of His Royal Highness The Duke of Cambridge on the streets of Israel saving lives.

Sadiq Khan has revealed he regularly turned to advice from Israel over the past few months on how to encourage Londoners to overcome concerns about having the Covid-19 vaccine.

Touring the streets of Golders Green as he campaigned for a second term in office as London Mayor, Khan heaped praise on his counterpart in Tel Aviv, Ron Huldai and revealed they had spoken “quite a lot” during the pandemic.


“What Israel did with what is called vaccine hesitancy – they were light years ahead,” he told Jewish News.

“We were speaking to them regularly on how you bust the myths. What Israel recognised was that you have got to educate people.

“They explained very well and normalised and educated and explained if you want to get back to reality vaccines are the way out.

“Initiatives like the gym for a jab scheme where you got to go to the gym if you had the vaccine, that was such a clever way to deal with those who were hesitant to get vaccinated.”

With such close working relations with Israel, Khan was questioned on why he had not yet kept a promise made to Jewish News in 2018 that he was ready to visit the country with a delegation “soon.”

Asked if could definitely pledge to visit Israel if elected for a second term on May 6, he said: “I can, absolutely.”

He added:”If I am re-elected I intend to go to Israel. There is a lot of work we are already doing in fintech, with innovation.

“Whenever I speak with the Mayor of Tel Aviv I am very excited about the work that is taking place there.

If I am re-elected I intend to go to Israel. There is a lot of work we are already doing in fintech, with innovation

“There is an obvious partnership,  I want to see us building on that. In term two, I will bang the drum for London in Israel.”

Khan accepted that some voters amongst the capital’s Jewish community could still not bring themselves to accept that his party Labour were doing enough to tackle antisemitism, even under Keir Starmer’s leadership.

He said it was to Starmer’s “credit” that he had implemented the recommendations of the Equality and Human Rights Commission report into his party “in full and straight away” and that he had suspended Jeremy Corbyn over his refusal to apologise for his criticism of the watchdog’s assessment of his handling of antisemitism.

Khan then called for Labour to “redouble our efforts to try to persuade” the likes of former MP Luciana Berger that “we have changed.”

He said:”I think people such as Luciana, and Louise Ellman,  still needed to be persuaded.

“It is really important that we redouble our efforts to persuade them the party has changed under Keir.”

Khan said he was fighting the election on a manifesto that promised to protect those who have lost jobs in the pandemic.

He also said Covid had illustrated the inequalities that continued to exist in London across every community.

What Israel did with what is called vaccine hesitancy – they were light years ahead

Pointing to the “good example” of the Stamford Hill Charedi community he said: “What Stamford Hill showed was that families living in multi-generational households, through no fault of them own – they were passing the virus on.

“It is important to understand the consequences of over- crowding and to support the communities.

“One of the ways is through homes that adults and children can move in to, which are affordable.

“In Stamford Hill , for example, we were seeing three generations in one household.

“For some that is fine, but some do it because they have no choice to do so. That’s why it is really important to support those families.”

Venturing into familiar Golders Green establishments such as Carmelis Bakery,  the Head Room Cafe, and the restaurant Pita, Khan was greeted enthusiastically by nearly all.

He was joined on the tour by senior figures from the Jewish Labour Movement including national chair Mike Katz, London chair Neil Nerva, National Vice Chair Sarah Sackman, and the Barnet Labour candidate Anne Clarke.

Outside Pita he told two people he was in favour of vaccine passports to gain entry to shops and venues, but only if they did not place “an additional burden on small businesses.”

He added:”I think more work needs to be done on them.”

Only one man on the street sought to criticise him over claims he had left a hole in the finances of Transport for London, a claim made recently by Prime Minister Boris Johnson.

Khan sought to counter the attack, explaining the impact of the pandemic on travel, and the government’s offer of a loan.

The man said he would not be voting for Khan, but when asked who he would be voting for he failed to give an answer.

Khan told Jewish News he wanted to be seen as a mayor who would like after the interests of all Londoners and who recognised the contribution made to it by the Jewish community.

“One of the reasons why we are one of the greatest cities in the world is because of the contribution made by Jewish Londoners – economically, socially and culturally,” he said.

Khan refused to criticise his rival Tory candidate Shaun Bailey’s attempts to win over the community, saying he believed all politicians should attempt to reach out to them.

But he said he hoped recognition would be there for his work with the Jewish community over the past five years.

He said he received advice on the both the “successes” and the “challenges” faced by the community from the “many” Jewish faces in his team.

EXCLUSIVE: Jewish Voice For Labour official chairs Labour panel on antisemitism
A leading JVL figure, once branded an "antisemitism denier" by the Board of Deputies, has been allowed to lead a hearing of the Labour Party's highest disciplinary body.

Labour leader Sir Keir Starmer delivers his keynote speech during the party's online conference.
A leading Jewish Voice for Labour figure, once branded an “antisemitism denier” by the Board of Deputies, has been allowed to chair a hearing of the Labour Party’s highest disciplinary body that looked into accusations of antisemitism, Jewish News can reveal.
Stephen Marks, a JVL committee member, led a three-person meeting of Labour’s national constitutional committee (NCC) last Thursday that ruled on a case that involved allegations of bullying and further claims of antisemitic discourse, according to Jewish News sources. 
https://jewishnews.timesofisrael.com/exclusive-jewish-voice-for-labour-official-chairs-labour-panel-on-antisemitism/

Marks, who has previously been labelled an “antisemitism denier” by the Board of Deputies, was controversially elected on to the NCC, which has the power to expel members of the Labour Party, in 2018 after being supported by activists of the Momentum group.

JVL committee member Stephen Marks.
Last week’s hearing involved allegations made by the former Labour Mayor of Haringey and Labour councillor Sheila Peacock.

Peacock, who is herself Jewish and aged 89, had made a formal complaint against local councillor Vincent Carroll, which included the allegation that he sent her a text message threatening she would be “physically removed from office.”

It followed a dispute over Peacock’s decision to cancel a Council AGM last year due to the coronavirus pandemic and instead hold it this May.

Sources said Marks chaired last week’s hearing alongside Annabelle Harle, the Cardiff West Labour activist who was also backed at elections for the NCC by the Momentum group.

Mick Caney, president of the Transport Salaried Staffs Association (TSSA) trade union, was the third person on the panel.

Jewish News has learned that the case also involved an allegation that Carroll had issued threats to Peacock  and offered her “money” to leave the party.
A mobile telephone text message exchange revealed Carroll had said to Peacock “if you wish to leave the party, say so.”

He added: “If you need the money, come to me. Don’t just try to hang on, it’s pathetic.”

The four times Mayor of Haringey and councillor for the Northumberland Park ward responded by texting him writing: “Money unlike for some is not my God.”

Caroll replied: “Yes it is. You either move the AGM or be disciplined by the party.”

It is understood that in a witness statement Peacock claimed she was particularly upset that Carroll had offered her money.

She alleged he had done so because she is known to be Jewish.

Labour sources have stressed that the main allegation at last week’s hearing involved allegations of bullying, rather than antisemitism, and that Peacock had herself first used the “Money not my God” phrase.

After hearing the case, the NCC panel cleared Carroll of the charges against him. He had been suspended by Labour last year, but he is now back as a full member of the party’s Haringey Group.

It is not known if this was a decision reached by all three people on the panel or by a majority.

Sources close to Peacock say she has been left “distraught” by the ruling.

She had attempted to get last week’s meeting adjourned, citing a medical appointment.

A legal representative for Carroll convinced the panel that the case should be concluded that day.

The decision to ask Marks onto a panel involving some allegations around the issue of antisemitism has raised anger among senior Jewish Labour figures.

It is understood they have now raised the issue with senior figures connected to leader Sir Keir Starmer.

Marks, a member of Oxford East Labour Party, won his place on the NCC at elections in September 2018 as one of six candidates on the Momentum slate.

The NCC meets to adjudicate on the most high-profile and serious cases of alleged misconduct in Labour – such as those involving former London Mayor Ken Livingstone and other cases involving antisemitism claims.

Its three-person panels are selected shortly in advance of upcoming cases, with care meant to be taken to ensure the panel does not have political or factional left-wing/right-wing bias.

Momentum founder Jon Lansman, who has now stood down from the organisation, had been amongst those opposed to Marks being nominated for the NCC.

Last December, Marks wrote an article for the JVL website openly attacking the decision to suspend Jeremy Corbyn over his response to the EHRC report into Labour handling of antisemitism.

He accused Starmer and Labour general secretary David Evans of granting “privilege” to Jewish communal groups “who agree to join in the lynch-mob attack” on Corbyn.

Marks complained: “To point out that Jeremy’s statement was in no way antisemitic is now proof of ‘antisemitism’.”

He had also previously supported a Labour member suspended from the party in 2016 over claims he had shared claims on Facebook that Isis had used weapons made in Israel, comparing Mossad with the Nazis and accusing Israel of genocide against the Palestinians.

Marks shared a petition, saying: “It is cases like this which ‘bring the party into disrepute’. Those responsible are the ones who should be suspended!”

In 2018 he reportedly compared calls by communal organisations for Labour to strengthen its disciplinary processes on antisemitism with how  “the Austro-Hungarian ultimatum to Serbia in 1914 was designed to provide a pretext for starting World War I”.

Marks, who once accused the Board of being behind “imagined” claims of antisemitism in Labour, also wrote a letter in support of the now expelled Labour activist Jackie Walker, according to minutes of a meeting of Momentum’s Oxford branch.

Miriam Mirwitch, ex-chair of Young Labour and a leading member of the Jewish Labour Movement, said electing Marks onto Labour’s NCC  was not the way to “win back the trust of the Jewish community”.

The power of the NCC will be greatly reduced once Labour introduces an independent disciplinary process as instructed by last October’s EHRC report into antisemitism.

The report recognises that in line with Labour’s rulebook the independent complaints process needs to be approved at a vote at the party’s annual conference later this year.

Until this happens, Labour will attempt to ease its backlog of disciplinary cases by holding regular meetings of both its NCC and national executive committee (NEC) disputes committee.

A Labour spokesperson refused to comment on the decision to use Marks at last week’s NCC panel.

Jewish News approached Marks for comment, giving him a day to respond before publishing this article.

China's Exploitation of Western Academia
by Judith Bergman  •  April 7, 2021 at 4:00 am
"In many cases, these UK universities are unintentionally generating research that is sponsored by and may be of use to China's military conglomerates, including those with activities in the production of Weapons of Mass Destruction (WMDs), including intercontinental ballistic missiles (ICBMs) as well as hypersonic missiles, in which China is involved in a new arms race and seeks 'massively destabilising' weaponry". — "Inadvertently Arming China? The Chinese military complex and its potential exploitation of scientific research at UK universities," a report by the British think tank Civitas, February 7, 2021.

"This report illustrates how 15 of the 24 Russell Group universities and many other UK academic bodies have productive research relationships with Chinese military-linked manufacturers and universities. Much of the research at the university centres and laboratories is also being sponsored by the UK taxpayer...." — "Inadvertently Arming China? The Chinese military complex and its potential exploitation of scientific research at UK universities," a report by the British think tank Civitas, February 7, 2021.

Australian analyst Alex Joske, in a submission to the Australian Joint Committee on Intelligence and Security, "The Chinese Communist Party's Talent Recruitment Efforts in Australia," identified at least 325 participants from Australian research institutions, including government institutions, in Chinese Communist Party (CCP) talent-recruitment programs, with as many as up to 600 academics possibly being involved.... Joske estimated that CCP talent recruitment activity in Australia may be associated with as much as AUD $280 million (USD $217 million) in grant fraud over the past two decades.

According to official statistics, China's talent-recruitment programs drew in almost 60,000 overseas professionals between 2008 and 2016," Joske wrote in his August 2020 report, "Hunting the phoenix - The Chinese Communist Party's global search for technology and talent". "These efforts lack transparency; are widely associated with misconduct, intellectual property theft or espionage; contribute to the People's Liberation Army's modernisation; and facilitate human rights abuses..... Over the long term, China's recruitment of overseas talent could shift the balance of power between it and countries such as the US."

China continues generously to fund Western universities. In the UK, for instance, the Chinese company Tencent funded post-doctoral research in the Department of Engineering at Cambridge University.... According to the CIA, Tencent was founded with financing from China's Ministry of State Security.

Oxford University has also received a generous donation from Tencent. Its prestigious Wykeham chair of physics, which was established in 1900, will now be known as the Tencent-Wykeham chair, in honor of the Chinese software giant's donation of £700,000 to the university.

Much of Chinese influence on British universities comes from the CCP's Confucius Institutes, of which there are at least 29 in the UK, according to a February 2019 report on the topic by the Conservative Party Human Rights Commission.


Almost 200 British academics from 20 unnamed UK universities are being investigated for possibly sharing British technology with China that could be used in the Chinese government's repression of minorities and dissidents. The revelation came shortly after the University of Manchester cancelled a research partnership with China Electronics Technology Group.

Almost 200 British academics from 20 unnamed UK universities are being investigated for possibly sharing British technology with China that could be used in the Chinese government's repression of minorities and dissidents, according to a recent news report by The Times. The revelation came shortly after the University of Manchester cancelled a research partnership with China Electronics Technology Group (CETC).

The cancellation came after the university was warned that CETC is, "one of the main architects of the Chinese government's surveillance state in Xinjiang, China, providing both technology and infrastructure that is being used for the identity-based persecution of more than one million people, predominantly Uyghur Muslims". The university said their research collaboration with CETC aimed to "significantly advance the field of radio astronomy" and that it had been unaware of CETC's alleged role in the persecution of Uyghurs.

UK: Judges restore citizenship to three Islamic State jihadis, one of whom is a migrant
By Robert Spencer, Mar 21, 2021:
The Home Office some time ago banned Martin Sellner, Brittany Pettibone, Lauren Southern and Lutz Bachmann from entering, all for the crime of opposing jihad terror and Sharia oppression, and thereby made it clear that it is more authoritarian and unwilling to uphold the freedom of speech than ever – at least when it comes to criticism of Islam, Muslim rape gangs, and mass Muslim migration.

The bannings of Sellner, Pettibone, Southern, and Bachmann were just part of a long pattern. Pamela Geller and I were banned in 2013, apparently for life, also for the crime of telling the truth about Islam and jihad. Just days after Geller and I were banned, the British government admitted Saudi Sheikh Mohammed al-Arefe. Al-Arefe has said: “Devotion to jihad for the sake of Allah, and the desire to shed blood, to smash skulls, and to sever limbs for the sake of Allah and in defense of His religion, is, undoubtedly, an honor for the believer. Allah said that if a man fights the infidels, the infidels will be unable to prepare to fight.”

And Syed Muzaffar Shah Qadri’s preaching of hatred and jihad violence was so hardline that he was banned from preaching in Pakistan, but the UK Home Office welcomed him into Britain.

The UK Home Office also admitted Shaykh Hamza Sodagar into the country, despite the fact that he has said: “If there’s homosexual men, the punishment is one of five things. One – the easiest one maybe – chop their head off, that’s the easiest. Second – burn them to death. Third – throw ’em off a cliff. Fourth – tear down a wall on them so they die under that. Fifth – a combination of the above.”

The relentlessly appeasement-minded British government also admitted two jihad preachers who had praised the murderer of a foe of Pakistan’s blasphemy laws. One of them was welcomed by the Archbishop of Canterbury. Meanwhile, the UK banned three bishops from areas of Iraq and Syria where Christians are persecuted from entering the country. The asylum application of a Christian family facing a death fatwa in Pakistan was three times rejected. But an ISIS bride was let back in and given a taxpayer-funded house, despite the fact that she has an ISIS flag on her Twitter account. No terror charges for her, of course.

Meanwhile, Manchester jihad mass murderer Salman Abedi trained with a jihad group in Libya, and traveled in and out of UK with no problem. And UK officials granted asylum to Yasser al-Sirri, a convicted jihad terrorist who advocated violent jihad and killing of Jews

The British government, in its abject pursuit of support from its rapidly growing Muslim community, has long ago left behind any commitment to basic human decency. Britain is, as we all know, finished.

“Judges Restore British Citizenship to Three Adult Islamic State Defectors,” by Jack Montgomery, Breitbart, March 20, 2021:
Immigration judges have restored the British citizenship of three British-Bangladeshi Islamic State defectors, one of whom was not even born in the country.

Media coverage of Islamic State defectors stripped of their citizenship — due to having dual nationality or eligibility for another nationality — has focused almost unwaveringly on Shamima Begum, a British-born daughter of Bangladeshi migrants who left for Syria aged 15. However, Begum is by no means the only jihadist recruit seeking to return to Britain from the broken caliphate.

Many have already returned successfully, with most going unprosecuted and being left at large in the country, while others are progressing cases against the Boris Johnson government’s piecemeal efforts to keep them out in the courts.

Three such jihadists, about whom the public know little due to their identities being kept private, have just won their citizenship back, according to a Telegraph report.

UK-born women C3 and C4 and Bangladesh-born man C7 may be able to return to Britain after the decision by the highly secretive Special Immigration Appeals Commission (SIAC), a court that hears cases related to the government removing citizenship on grounds of national security.

SIAC based its decision on the fact that Bangladeshi law only allows people with a blood right to Bangladeshi citizenship to retain it until age 21 if they also have nationality elsewhere.

Home Secretary Priti Patel is said to have stripped the three jihadists after they reached that age.

“C3, C4 and C7 have persuaded us that, on the dates when the decisions and the orders in their cases were made, they were not nationals of Bangladesh or any other state apart from the UK,” ruled Mr Justice Chamberlain on Thursday.

“This means that orders depriving them of their British citizenship would make them stateless,” he continued, insisting: “The Secretary of State [Priti Patel] had no power to make orders with that effect. For that reason – and that reason alone – the appeals against the decisions to make those orders succeed.”…

UK Foreign Secretary Claims Britain is ‘Dismantling’ the ‘Lies’ of ISIS Recruiters
MAR 20, 2021 6:00 PM BY ROBERT SPENCER22 COMMENTS
An entire nation ruled by wishful thinking and denial of reality. My latest in FrontPage:
The Islamic State (ISIS) is newly emboldened by the departure of Donald Trump from the Oval Office and the return to power of the forces of appeasement, denial, weakness and surrender. The National reported Thursday that “children are being exposed to ISIS terrorism online during lockdown, raising fears of brainwashing,” according to British Foreign Secretary Dominic Raab. Raab talked tough in response, but all he really offered was more of the same: lip-service to counterjihad efforts from a government that lacks the will to confront this foe, and would rather pretend that its real problem is “right-wing extremists.”

Dominic Raab (pictured above) told Parliament that “security services were fighting hard to combat the threat,” but he also recounted “the terrorists’ rising global influence, with armed groups in Africa and Asia adopting its violent methods.” The “biggest worry,” however, “was the ‘perfect storm’ of young people stuck indoors during lockdown, and going online to relieve their boredom where they were subjected to extremist indoctrination.” Accordingly, Raab said, “we can see a worrying rise in the proportion of children and teenagers that are now being arrested for terrorism offences.”

Yeah, that’s it, Raab, boredom leads to jihad. Give these boys a basketball and a job at Tesco and all will be well, right?
ISIS, he continued, is “still able to carry out lethal attacks,” and contrary to all the propaganda about “white supremacists,” it is still Britain’s “most significant terrorist threat.” Raab asserted that ISIS “more and more reliant on its perverse propaganda and warped narrative to try and maintain its relevance and cement support for its terrorist attacks. Daesh [the political elites’ favored euphemism for the Islamic State] maintains a steady drumbeat of violent communications, which they distribute with encrypted messaging applications.”

But never fear. Raab declared that British intelligence officials were “taking the fight online” and “degrading their network by dismantling their lies.” He added: “We’re approaching it with total vigour and determination.”

Yeah, sure you are, tough guy. In reality, your government is in full-on surrender and appeasement mode. Can you imagine what a fiasco Britain’s response to online ISIS recruitment really is? British security agents, thoroughly indoctrinated with fictions about Islam being a religion of peace, go online and tell Muslim youth that the Islamic State (ISIS) is telling “lies” and is un-Islamic because Islam teaches peace and tolerance, or because the Islamic State commits violence in the name of Islam, or because it kills innocent people in the name of Islam, or because it resorts to violence even thought it hasn’t been attacked, or because its jihadis take infidel women as sex slaves, or because it teaches that jihad has to do with warfare, or some such.

All these actions and others of the Islamic State can be and are justified by Islamic texts and teachings, as ISIS’ own literature repeatedly reminds us. The result of this is that the British agents’ appeal to these Muslim young people on Islamic grounds is foredoomed to fail, because if those young people have even a rudimentary knowledge of Islam, they will know that what the agents are saying is what is really un-Islamic. But the agents themselves don’t know that, and are abjectly ill-equipped to deal with it.
Raab’s claim that British officials are fighting against ISIS “with total vigour and determination” is just more theatre of the absurd. In reality, the Boris Johnson government is inundating the country with Muslim migrants, among whom there is an unknowable number of Islamic jihadis, without making any attempt to determine if any of them are actually jihadis. It is smearing and stigmatizing people who oppose jihad violence and Sharia oppression. It is devoting resources to prosecuting “anti-Muslim hate crimes” that consist of someone saying rude things to a Muslim.
And while continuing to bar foreign foes of jihad terror from the country, British officials are still admitting jihadis. MailOnline reported in mid-February “a terrorist who claimed asylum in Britain after he was sentenced to death in Egypt for a failed assassination plot is set to win the right to stay in this country.


 https://www.jihadwatch.org/2021/03/uk-police-told-mother-of-12-year-old-victim-of-muslim-rape-gang-we-think-your-daughter-is-prostituting-herself?utm_source=newsletter&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=the_2021_03_20_jihad_watch_daily_digest&utm_term=2021-03-20
Yet another story to add to the scores of others about Muslim rape gangs and the massive coverup. In this case, police not only attempted to cover up the crime but further abused the victim through humiliation:
Her mum said: “She was always going missing after that, we’d have to pick her up at the police station after she was found by them, sometimes at hotels. The police asked me if I knew what was happening and I said if I did I’d have an idea how to deal with it, I had no idea.
“And they said, ‘Well, we think your daughter is prostituting herself’. I could have dropped to my knees at that point because we were talking about a young girl.”
Muslim rape gangs have been the biggest scandal to hit Britain in memory, yet the handling of these atrocities by law enforcement has been almost as repugnant as the gangs themselves. Testimonies and stories continue to surface, showing again and again that far too many authorities prioritized identity politics and protecting the reputation of (mainly) Pakistani Muslim men over young innocent girls who were victimized and sometimes referred to using anti-white racist pejorative terms.

Seventeen schools in the UK are already owned by Chinese companies, and that number is destined to skyrocket. In additon, The Times revealed that the University of Cambridge received a "generous gift" from Tencent Holdings, one of the largest technology companies in China involved in state censorship.

Today, we know a lot about the Chinese cruelty, including the mass murder by the Wuham virus that the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) forced upon the world....resulting in the murder of more than 2.5 million.

We also know about the number of people locked up in the laogai, the Chinese "administrative prisons" (estimate, 50 million)....

"Places inhabited by ethnic minorities, such as Xinjiang and Tibet, have stood out as shining examples of China's human rights progress", Wang said hours before addressing the...United Nations Human Rights Council. Probably even the Soviet Union could not have thought that one up.

Gulbahar Haitiwaji, a survivor of China's "re-education camps" in Xinjiang, recently revealed what happens there. "It is forbidden to speak Uyghur; it is forbidden to pray; it is forbidden to go on a hunger strike..." She had to defecate into a plastic bucket in front of the others. She was chained to her bed for 20 days.

A shocking investigation was just published by the French weekly Le Point on how Beijing is buying the favor of Western universities. An Italian associate professor, for example, Fabio Massimo Parenti, at the Lorenzo de Medici International Institute in Florence, was hosted in Xinjiang, where up to two million Uyghurs are estimated to be locked up in "re-education camps". In addition, many British schools are now closely under Chinese radar of influence and propaganda. Nigel Farage, the leader of Britain's Reform UK Party, recently tweeted that "Chinese billionaires with direct links to the CCP are buying up British schools — and flooding the curriculum with their propaganda," and listed the names of some in the UK "under Chinese control":

Young Welsh dad and rugby player dies from Covid complications aged just 34
There has been an outpouring of grief and tributes to Huw Gethin Jones, including from Welsh rugby star George North who said his thoughts are with Mr Jones' family

There are always big stories on WalesOnline - don't miss any with our daily email

Huw Gethin Jones, who was well-known and hugely popular, messaged his friends from hospital on Wednesday saying he was feeling better and was looking forward to being back home. Sadly, he died on Friday. He was just 34.

Tributes to Mr Jones have poured in from across Wales, many from rugby clubs shocked by his untimely death. Rugby legend George North was among them.

Until recently, Mr Jones was a star player for Llangefni RFC’s first team, North Wales Live reports, a second row forward who was nicknamed “Huw Stretch” for his height and expertise in the line-out.

As one of a group of players responsible for establishing a Premiership rugby team in north Wales, his passing drew a heartfelt response from Wales rugby star North. On hearing of his death, he tweeted: “Such sad news. I’m so sorry to hear this. My thoughts are with his family.”


A talented musician who worked as a TV editor for Rondo Media in Caernarfon, Mr Jones, from Llynfaes, near Llangefni on Anglesey, was also an entrepreneur, founding craft brewery Bragdy Mona with six friends. He leaves wife Teleri, a GP, and two young children, Gwydion, three, and Math, one.

Ynys Môn MS Rhun ap Iorwerth was also quick to express his shock and sadness at Huw’s death.

“This is a cruel virus,” he tweeted.

“Care for each other, and do what’s right to keep others safe. My deepest condolences to those who are grieving.”

On Saturday a fundraising page was set up to raise money to support Huw's family now and in the future.

Organiser Manon Dafydd said a “wave of sadness” had engulfed his family, colleagues and many friends. Within four hours the appeal, on the GoFundMe website, had reached £10,000, and by Sunday afternoon had reached £22,000.

On the GoFundMe page she wrote: "On February 19, 2021 a wave of sadness hit the family, friends and co-workers of Huw Gethin ‘Stretch’ following the news of his death due to coronavirus. Huw’s infectious personality would fill the room, always full of fun and telling stories. He gave 100% to every aspect of his life.

"Huw was a big family man, and this page was created to raise money to support the family during this difficult time and in the future."

A similar tribute was paid by Simon Jones, chairman of Llangefni Rugby Club. Huw had been a popular fixture there since rising through the junior ranks, at one time coached by Steve Kieran, who himself died just before Christmas.

For many years he was a stalwart of the first team. His father, Dafydd, was a former chairman of the club, and is now president, while his brother and “best friend” Rhys coached the youth team.

Simon Jones, who succeeded Huw's father as club chairman, said the entire club had been deeply saddened by Huw’s death.

“Huw was universally popular, very eloquent and hugely knowledgeable about all things but especially rugby,” he said.
“He was always very pleasant with people and could strike up a conversation with anyone. Our thoughts are with his family. Speaking to them, I know they have been very touched by all the messages of support and condolences that have been sent to them by rugby clubs right across north Wales.”

Huw’s talents also extended to music. He was a member of the choir Hogia Llanbobman, and a guitarist and vocalist with rock band #Band6, performing both at rugby clubs and weddings.

Among Huw’s many interests was brewing. He was to become a driving force of the Bragdy Mona brewery, established with six friends after he impressed them with his home brews in a series of late night “tasting sessions”.

138266811001
They were old school friends in their 30s – five of them members of Hogiau Llanbobman – who each each committed around £5,000 to set up the brewery. Despite the pandemic, Bragdy had continued operating as the company was able to develop online sales.

However no one at the brewery is now willing to contemplate the future until they come to terms with the loss of their “head brewer”.

U.K. will infect dozens of healthy volunteers in world’s first COVID-19 “challenge trial”
(CBS) – England is set to become the first country in the world to intentionally infect healthy volunteers with COVID-19 in what’s known as a “human challenge study.” The country’s medical ethics body approved the trial Wednesday.

Funded by the British government, the $47 million study will play a crucial role in continuing the development of effective coronavirus vaccines and treatments, officials said. The first-of-its-kind challenge study is expected to begin within the next month, involving up to 90 carefully selected, healthy volunteers aged 18-30.

Coal tips: Almost 300 in Wales classed as 'high-risk'
By Steven Fairclough

media captionIn February, 60,000 tonnes slipped down the hillside at Tylorstown
Almost 300 old coal tips in Wales have been classed as "high-risk" a year on from a 60,000 tonne landslip caused by Storm Dennis.

The matter was discussed at a Welsh Government summit on mine safety on Tuesday.

Wales has more than 2,000 coal tips. Most are on private land and most are around the south Wales valleys.

Of those, 294 are categorised as "high-risk", meaning they could endanger life or property.

Seventy are in Caerphilly, 64 in Rhondda Cynon Taf, 59 in Merthyr Tydfil, 42 in Bridgend, 35 in Neath Port Talbot, 16 in Blaenau Gwent and eight in Swansea.

The landslip last year was at Tylorstown, in Rhondda. Since it happened, work has been done to map tips and assess their stability.

The Welsh and UK governments, the Coal Authority, local councils and other bodies have been examining the problem.

Their investigation has concluded current legislation surrounding tips is "neither sufficiently robust or fit for purpose in relation to inspection and maintenance".

Coal Authority chief executive, Lisa Pinney, said managing tips on hillsides was key to reducing risk to communities.

"Just under 300 are higher-risk sites but that really just means that they needed much more regular attention and inspection to make sure they stay safe," she said.

image captionRhondda MP Chris Bryant said he feared local councils would be asked to pay to make tips safe
She said when there were concerns, action would be taken.

"Any tip which is old mining material sitting on a hillside can pose a risk, obviously, but the key thing to their safety is to manage water and keep it away," said Ms Pinney.

"And that's why these inspections and maintenance are so important."

No-one was hurt in the Tylorstown landslip and work is under way to secure the hillside.

Rhondda MP Chris Bryant said funding was essential.

"It's shocking that no proper register of disused coal tips was made when the mines closed, so this work is long overdue," he said.

"With so many on private land this is going to be a massive and complex piece of work in which Parliament and Senedd must work together.

image captionMore than 50 years after the Aberfan disaster hundreds of "high-risk" tips remain in Wales
"My biggest fear is [Chancellor] Rishi Sunak will demand that local councils pay for this out of their council tax but the poorest communities in the UK should not be forced to pay for tidying up our national industrial heritage."

Plaid Cymru Member of the Senedd for Rhondda Leanne Wood said the UK government should foot the full bill for making the tips safe and anything less would be "unacceptable".

"When the profits from coal mining were not seen in Rhondda, nor in many other coalfield areas across Wales, coupled with the high cost to health and lives of the workers and their families, that funding and more is owed to us," she said.

Welsh Conservative Janet Finch-Saunders said long-term work to make the tips safe could only be done in partnership with the UK government.

Coalfield historian Ben Curtis said some tips were removed or made safe after the Aberfan disaster in 1966.

"But it is a potential problem that continues to remain for some of these tips to become unsafe over time, perhaps [because of] factors like the effects of climate change and increased rainfall," he said.

A UK government spokesperson said: "Ever since the devastating storms of early 2020, the UK government has been working with the Welsh Government on its devolved responsibility to provide extra support for flood relief and protection to the communities which were so badly affected.

"In December we confirmed that £31m would be provided for this vital work, of which £9m was to repair vulnerable coal tips.

"We also provided the Welsh Government with an additional £1.3bn for next year at the recent spending review so they are well placed to continue this work"

The summit - which was held virtually - was also due to discuss wider issues of mine safety after water escaped after building up in a mine shaft in Skewen, Neath Port Talbot, flooding nearby homes in January.

What is a coal tip?
"The coal tip is made up of what we call unconsolidated materials so this is loose material like grains of sugar, all stacked up on top of each other," Ashley Patton, an engineering geologist from the British Geological Survey said.

She told BBC Radio Wales Breakfast: "When it gets to a certain angle it can make it unsafe and then when you get triggering factors, such as water from a spring line or from heavy rain that we've seen quite a lot of in south Wales, it can just make it destabilise.

"The main problem with south Wales is you've got lots of steep-sided valleys and then if you're going to put coal spoil on top of those steep slopes that's just going to make it more likely that it's going to fail...

"The most important thing is to take what we call the angle of friction so you're looking at what is the perfect angle for that material - so if you can cut it back to a shallower angle... generally speaking, it could be quite stable, and of course the other important thing is to make sure that the slopes are not sited on any spring lines or areas where farmers are putting water onto the slopes."

An 80-year-old Holocaust survivor and her rabbi son were allegedly beaten up in an attack on a bus in north London on Tuesday, according to reports from Jewish neighbourhood watch volunteers.

The incident in Stoke Newington was reported in a tweet from the Shomrim community protection team, alleging the female perpetrator to have said: “I hate you Jews. It’s not your place. You took our money.”
The mother and son were reportedly “punched in the head”, according to the Shomrim report, with the Campaign Against Antisemitism (CAA) describing it as “an unprovoked attack”.

In a statement, the CAA – which pursues civil action against alleged anti-Semites – said the perpetrator “threw the rabbi’s hat to the floor during the assault”. It added that the Holocaust survivor had been left “traumatised”.

The incident occurred around 14.45 on Tuesday on a 76 bus travelling from Stoke Newington to Stamford Hill, according to the CAA.
“Passengers pleaded with the bus driver to stop, as the incident took place as they were driving by a police station, but he allegedly refused,” said the CAA.
“This is yet another unprovoked act of violence against members of the Jewish community going about their day,” said a spokesman.
“Transport for London must explain why the bus driver took no action, allowing the abuse to go on despite the violence and the protests of other passengers, and the assailant must quickly be identified and prosecuted to the full extent of the law.”
Both the Metropolitan Police and Transport for London have been approached for comment.
If you have any more information, please contact the police on 101 or Stamford Hill Shomrim on 0300 999 0123, quoting reference number: CAD4563 9/2/21.

Muslim and Jewish doctors launch London’s first mobile vaccination unit
EXCLUSIVE: Yasmin Razak and Sharon Raymond visit two community centres in West London in a bid to increase uptake of the vaccine
By JACK MENDEL

Two GPs – one Muslim and one Jewish GP – have collaborated to launch London’s first mobile vaccination unit.
Two community centres in the North Kensington, one of London’s most deprived areas, are the first recipients of the pilot project, which aims to increase uptake of the Covid jab among faith groups.


Starting at St Charles Hospital, the team are visiting the Al Manaar Muslim Cultural Heritage Centre, and the Venture Community Centre in the borough, on Sunday.

Led by Dr Yasmin Razak GP, who is clinical director of the Neohealth Primary Care Network team based in West London, the project is supported by Dr Sharon Raymond, the Director of Covid Crisis Rescue Foundation.

Dr Sharon Raymond, who has raised more than £115,000 to support efforts of frontline workers and the public since the start of pandemic, told Jewish News:

“The vision for this pilot project is for a London wide fleet of mobile Covid-19 vaccination units to travel to community centres and places of worship, as well as to the homes of those who are housebound or have difficulty leaving home, such as those people with physical or learning disabilities, in order to increase uptake of vaccination with the support of specialist clinicians to explain more about the vaccine to people eligible for vaccination’”


Dr Sharon Raymond and Dr Yasmin Razak
The initiative, which seeks to encourage faith communities to take up vaccinations for coronavirus is planned to be on the road every week, travelling to faith and community centres and places of worship in London.

Anyone who wants to support or get involved can do so via Dr Sharon Raymond’s fundraising page: https://www.justgiving.com/crowdfunding/coronavirus-fightback

Abraham Berger
A Chassidic man from Hackney has been jailed for 14 years for multiple child abuse offences, including sexual attacks on children under the age of 10 and sharing indecent images online.

Abraham Berger, a member of the Skver Hasid community, was described by police as “a dangerous, predatory offender” with around 1,600 images and 127 videos of child abuse on his phone.

The 40-year-old, who describes himself on Twitter as a ‘proud dad and husband originally from New York’ was sentenced at Snaresbrook Crown Court, after pleading guilty to charges that also included sexually abusing a young boy and girl, both under the age of 10. After his release, he will spend a further four years on licence.

Berger was part of an instant messaging chat group that discussed child sexual abuse and shared such images between themselves. Police say he lead a “double life” and said many of the images he possessed were ‘first generation’, meaning that they show Berger committing the abuse.

Yehudis Fletcher an independent sexual violence adviser for Migdal Emunah, said: “What’s interesting in this case is that he pleaded guilty, which is a shift and I hope and a sign of changing attitudes. Previously we have seen community- sponsored campaigns to pay for suspects’ defences so maybe this is one where nobody was been willing to pay up.” 

Detective Constable Chris Bailey, of the Met’s Central Specialist Crime vulnerability team, said: “The protection of children, and other vulnerable people, from harm is a priority for the Met, and we have a team of officers dedicated to identifying and arresting child abuse offenders who operate online.”

Anyone with concerns about Berger should call police on 101 or the NSPCC on 0808 800 5000. Find out more about Migdal Emunah HERE
