‘The poll of 505 people, commissioned by the European Jewish Congress (EJC), also found that almost 60 percent of those questioned were unaware that six million Jews died during the Holocaust.

The survey – carried out by Suration in preparation for an emergency Pan European summit, in cooperation with the European Union, on January 26 in Prague – was aimed at securing views of young British people across a range of subjects, including anti-Semitism and racism.

A shade under 53% acknowledge that anti-Semitism is present in the UK today, and a worrying 15% agree with a suggestion that laws should be passed requiring Jews to carry identification showing their religion. A further 18% said they do not know whether legislation calling on Jews to carry some form of identity card is necessary, but all the same favor the introduction of laws requiring businesses owned by Jews to show some special identification.

The comparative figure of those favoring legislation to force Muslim businesses to self-identify is 21%.’

1—Every child in the UK is taught about the Holocaust, its a compulsary part of history teaching.

2—Anti Semitism might be apparent, but its on the fringes in the UK as its always been. The 2014 JDL global study found the UK to be the 6th LEAST anti-Semitic nation on earth!. America 7th. Britain has never been a major anti-Semitic nation, unlike some of its European neighbours. It rejected it and Fascism in the 20s and 30s and still does: extreme groups have tiny supports.

3—Identifying Jews?. WHO ON EARTH DID THIS GROUP SPEAK TO?. NO normal young Briton thinks this way. Only young extreme right wing racists (BNP, neo-Nazi groups) OR young radicalised Muslims.

“Britain has never been a major anti-Semitic nation...”

England was one of the first European countries to expel the Jews in 1290, and did not let them back in until Cromwell.

After that, Britain was better than most European countries.
