It is outrageous that the BMA has voted to challenge the IHRA definition of antisemitism. This comes less than a month after the Government’s review into antisemitism in the NHS which exposed widespread, systemic discrimination including Jewish staff facing “routine ostracism” and Jewish patients hiding their identity or fearing access to care. The IHRA definition does not silence free speech or prevent criticism of Israel. What it does is draw a clear line between legitimate political debate and antisemitism. That is not censorship; it is a basic safeguard against hatred and discrimination. Instead of lecturing Jews on what constitutes antisemitism, the BMA should focus on restoring trust and ensuring the NHS is once again a safe and welcoming place for Jewish staff and patients alike.

A shocking decision, that targets Jewish health care workers and patients. Let's hope the government and the NHS sticks to its adoption. 'BMA votes to scrap international definition of antisemitism across NHS in shock move' thejc.com/news/uk/bma-vo…

Labour is taking action on tackling antisemitism in the NHS. We're pleased that the government has accepted the recommendations set out by Lord Mann in his report on antisemitism in our National Health Service.

Meta Ramsay was a public servant of immense intelligence, principle and bravery. She was a loyal and dedicated friend of Israel and the Jewish community and a fierce opponent of antisemitism. LFI benefitted hugely from Meta’s longstanding and distinguished work as our chair in the House of Lords. We will miss her greatly. A toast to you, Meta.

The PM is absolutely right to say we need stronger powers to tackle the malign threat posed by states like Iran because “we know for a fact that they want to harm British Jews.” I welcome his announcement that this legislation will be fast-tracked. bbc.co.uk/news/live/c3ve…
