An utter and disgusting lie.
The Jewish population of Great Britain lives happily without any major anti-semitism. In fact, Judaism is openly celebrated as a long standing and vibrant part of British culture.
British TV ran pro-Jewish documentaries across all five of its network channels last year. Did America?.
British Jewish entertainers, writers, politicians and businesspeople openly celebrate their Jewishness. The London East End Jew, with his sharp wit and mouth is as well loved and known a cultural icon as the Glaswegian or the Cockney.
The current British Prime Minister is part Jewish. As is the deputy PM. As is the leader of the opposition party(Labour). So you have Jewish-descended people in the three most important political positions in the UK.
Are Obama, Biden and Romney Jewish?......
The comments about Britain are simply obnoxious. They are a disgusting slander on the vast, vast majority of the British people. Who are no more antisemitic than their American cousins.
The UK is the nation that rejected the naked antisemitism of the 1930s Fascists, and continues to reject the antisemitism of the BNP and other fringe neo-nazi parties and groups. The nation that stood alone against Hitler, while America and others stood by. And the nation that liberated Belsen and saved Jewish lives.
To suggest that the British people are antisemitic OR that the jews of Britain are victims of mass cultural or physical antisemitism is a downright and disgusting lie.
Nice post. Glad to see someone stand up for the truth
Methinks the Scotsman doth protest too much.
Please read the following post by Debbie Schlussel.

Schlussel gives a grocery list of examples of British anti-Semitism that includes the following gem:
“They seemed to relish in sending Jews back to Hitler-controlled Europe, to be murdered in the Holocaust. While in Palestine, the British soldiers often made anti-Semitic trinkets and dolls to mock the Jews.”
As far as credibility goes, I know who she is. She has survived for years as a blogger who tells it like it is.
As she is Jewish, I think she knows the score on how Jews are treated in England.
Here is another article (authored by Melanie Phillips, dated 2007) discussing British antisemitism worthy of your time:
http://www.city-journal.org/html/17_4_anti-semitism.html
Phillips’ article includes the following statement:
“At the heart of this ugly development is a new variety of anti-Semitism, aimed primarily not at the Jewish religion, and not at a purported Jewish race, but at the Jewish state.”
And what do you say about MP Mercer? That he really is a great friend of the Jews, too?
Sorry, not buying what you are selling.
If Cameron and crew are part Jewish, it matters not to me. Why do Cameron and his cronies pander and cave to the Muslims at every opportunity while habitually showing the fist to true British patriots such as Tommy Robinson and his EDL?
I believe know the score, dude. Do you?
