Labour Party MP John Mann: Britain’s three types of anti-Semitism

 

Chairman of the All Party Parliamentary Group Against Anti-Semitism in the British parliament and Labour Party member John Mann spoke at the British Limmud Conference Monday, addressing the issue of rising anti-Semitism in the UK and Europe to 3, 000 young Jews.

“Britain has 3 forms of anti-Semitism: Traditional anti-Semitism, anti-Semitism of the left and anti-Semitism from the Muslim community”, he said.

The issue of rising anti-Semitism in Britain and in Europe all together: “is a dangerous situation and very volatile, with very serious potential consequences.”

About the controversial anti-Semitic statements by a member of his party Gerald Kaufman said Mann: ” Kaufman is a disgrace to parliament, a disgrace to the Labour Party and it’s a disgrace he is called the Father of the House”

Kaufman’s statements arouse a public storm in Britain, and were also condemned by head of the Labour party, Jeremy Korbyn. Mann condemned Kaufman firmly and said he should have retired years ago, and that Kaufman is “a disgrace to parliament, a disgrace to the Labour Party and it’s a disgrace he is called the Father of the House”
