“There is no good reason people should be bidding on Nazi pocket knives, SS skull insignias, and Hitler Youth membership badges. The buying and selling of these items has no place in our society and, in the context of rising far-right antisemitism, is sinister and deeply concerning. “We strongly urge Gilbert Baitson to withdraw these items from auction, as have other auction houses such as McTear’s, Bloomfield Auctions, and Vermot de Pas. We also urge the government to ban the sale of such items entirely.” – Andrew Gilbert, Vice President

Board of Deputies CEO @MichaelWegier spoke to @VanessaBaffoe on @LBC News this morning about the @CST_UK’s latest Antisemitic Incidents Report. "The level of antisemitic incidents in the UK remains at a worrying rate with the Jewish community under a level of threat not seen before the attacks on 7th October 2023. We thank the CST for their efforts to keep the community safe and will continue to work with the government, police and other agencies to ensure that every effort is being made to maintain the protection that our community unfortunately needs."

It was great to represent @BoardofDeputies at Collabor8 Bury and showcase the Jewish Living Experience Exhibition and educate about Judaism. Many people visited our stall including NHS workers, police and people of other faiths. 1/2

“We are extremely concerned that within days of the BBC’s damning report into their flawed documentary ‘Gaza: How to Survive a Warzone’, the CEO of news Deborah Turness appears to be obfuscating and minimising the BBC’s failings.” Our full statement:
We are extremely concerned that within days of the BBC’s damning report into their flawed documentary ‘Gaza: How to Survive a Warzone’, the CEO of news Deborah Turness appears to be obfuscating and minimising the BBC’s failings. Hamas is a proscribed terrorist organisation, and this so-called distinction between political and military wings has been categorically dismissed as artificial by the British government. Her remarks suggest that the BBC has not learned even basic lessons from their recent mistakes. Errors of this kind must come with accountability. The Board of Deputies will continue our engagement with regulators, government and BBC executives to ensure accountability, and the urgently needed changes within the corporation.
