UK risks ‘descending into darkness’ of antisemitism, Michael Gove to say

Michael Gove will also criticise the organisers of pro-Palestine marches for not doing more to prevent symbols of anti-Jewish hate.Michael Gove will also criticise the organisers of pro-Palestine marches for not doing more to prevent symbols of anti-Jewish hate.In a major speech, the communities secretary will say the safety of the Jewish community in the UK is the “canary in the mine” for the health of the whole political system.

“Growing antisemitism is a fever which weakens the whole body politic. There is one thing which – increasingly – unites the organisations and individuals which give cause for extremist concern: antisemitism.“It is the common currency of hate. It is at the dark heart of their worldview. Whether Islamist, far right or hard left.”

In his speech, Gove will criticise the organisers of pro-Palestine marches, at which thousands of people regularly march through London and other cities, for not doing more to prevent symbols of anti-Jewish hate. Gove, who is regarded as one of parliament’s most pro-Israel MPs, will urge peers to back his bill banning British public bodies from boycotting Israel, a move that some Tories have said could exacerbate British community tensions amid the Israel-Hamas war.
