Most British Jews believe they don’t have a long-term future in the UK, survey finds
The Times of Israel ^ | 27 January 2025 | Zev Stub

Only one-third of British Jews believe that Jews have a long-term future in the United Kingdom, and half have considered leaving Britain in the past two years due to antisemitism, according to a new survey published by the Campaign Against Antisemitism.

The survey of 4,078 British Jews, conducted in June 2024, was released Monday to coincide with International Holocaust Remembrance Day.

Respondents were required to self-identify as Jewish and confirm that they lived in the United Kingdom, and were contacted through other Jewish organizations. Campaign Against Antisemitism conceded that it is possible that the numbers include duplicate responses.

The results reflect the sharp rise in antisemitism in the UK since October 7, 2023, when Hamas launched its war against Israel by invading, killing 1,200 in Israel and taking 251 hostages.

Nearly 2,000 antisemitic incidents were documented in the first half of 2024, the highest-ever tally for a six-month period, according to the Community Security Trust, an organization helping secure Jews in the UK.

The Campaign Against Antisemitism study found that a majority of British Jews (58 percent) hide their Judaism due to antisemitism, and less than half (43%) feel welcome in the UK.

Some 84% of British Jews believe that the authorities are not doing enough to address and punish antisemitism, and 62% are not confident that police would prosecute an antisemitic crime if they reported it. Three-quarters said they are dissatisfied with how their local police forces have been policing anti-Israel marches in their cities.

"British Jews have lost trust in the criminal justice system in general, which they do not feel is protecting them,” the organization said. “We need more arrests, prosecutions, serious sentences, and a ban on the anti-Israel marches.”

Christians don’t have a future in Britain, neither.

"Then it will happen on that day that the Lord Will again recover with His hand the second time The remnant of His people who will remain, From Assyria, Egypt, Pathros, Cush, Elam, Shinar, Hamath, And from the islands of the sea.

And He will lift up a flag for the nations And assemble the banished ones of Israel, And will gather the dispersed of Judah From the four corners of the earth."

Isaiah 11:11-12

ZERO sympathy.

Google Barbara Roche quotes in google images. They did it to themselves. And then they blame the host country for antisemitism, even though they are obsessed with importing mooselimb, indian and african garbage into every country they inhabit. Maybe after Israel convinces their goy, I mean boy, Pete Hegseth to invade the middle east, Greater Israel can be the place they can go to.

Honestly I do not comprehend any Jew who (voluntarily) stayed in Europe after WWII, let alone more recent developments.

It is not wise to give over Europe to the muslims any more than it would have been wise to give over Europe to the Nazis in 1941.

The UK is on the verge of collapse after effectively 60 years of leftist/globalist/crony-capitalist control.

the marxist starmer nominated an ambassador who has declared himself an enemy of Trump.

Trump should reject that ambassador and ignore the UK. Starmer will not be around by December 2025.

Trump has decided to accept the UK ambassador. He's going to ignore the UK for most part anyway.

Starmer will make it to 2029. And maybe even longer than that.

Guaranteed that 99% of the antisemitism that these people are concerned about are caused by members of the “Religion of Peace” and not actual Brits.

Support open borders and find out what happens.

Then leave that country and go to the next country and repeat the same mistakes.

Except Israel. There they practice apartheid.

But the rest of the world? They can go to hell.

Why exactly did men fight in World War 2? To have their granddaughters - 250,000 - raped by Muslim invaders?

I think it's amazing how quickly an advanced civilization is collapsing.

With technology, everything is happening so much quicker.

It took centuries for the Ancient Romans to lose everything.

The UK? A couple of generations.

Warp speed.

At this rate, the UK may not even make it to 2030.
