Abstract: Following the terrorist attack in Israel, led by Hamas on October 7th 2023, the United Kingdom witnessed an immediate and alarming resurgence of anti-Jewish hatred on our streets, online, in education and across civil society. October 7th has brought to the fore problems that already existed. We are proposing practical action to tackle antisemitism, informed by our conversations with the Jewish community and their lived experience. Both of us come to this work with a deep personal commitment to the issue. Some recommendations are new; others are not. We are not proposing to override any of the work that is ongoing but simply to add value in areas where we can see that additional help is needed. We offer these recommendations politely but unapologetically as a challenge to all politicians and political parties, to all Jewish communal organisations, and to all the institutions and organisations who involve or seek to involve Jewish people. Ours is a call for precise action.
