Nearly a third of British Jews said they have considered leaving the United Kingdom over the past two years due to anti-Semitism.
The findings are part of a report published Sunday by the Campaign Against Antisemitism watchdog group and the YouGov market research company.
In interviews conducted in 2016 and 2017 with a combined sample of 7,156 respondents, 37 percent said they have been concealing in public signs that would indicate that they are Jewish.
Fifty-nine percent of the respondents since 2015 said they feel welcome in the United Kingdom; 17 percent said they feel unwelcome. Another 39 percent of respondents from 2015 onward said they trust justice authorities to prosecute perpetrators of anti-Semitic hate crimes.
Three-quarters of those interviewed said they feel that recent political events have resulted in increased hostility toward Jews. Since 2015, 80 percent of respondents said they believe that the Labour Party is harboring anti-Semites in its ranks. …

Very sad. I really couldn’t imagine. Britain is making a huge mistake choosing one over the other.
I think the Jewish community needs to get the hell out of a sharia europe ASAP, however, I don’t think they will be 100% safe and moving everyone to Israel will be putting “all the eggs into one basket” and will embolden the jew hating Arab neighbors to wipe Israel off the map.
I think Israel needs to get a few islands purchased in the pacific, atlantic and indian ocean and setup a few colonies or outposts just in case.
Wonder, how that poll would look if only Jews living in London participated in it.
Hitler failed to drive the Jews out of Europe but it looks like Frau Merkel’s good buddies,the moslem knuckledraggers,just might succeed.
It would be enlightening to know which country they would like to emigrate to. I bet half or more would want to emigrate to the (Nazi) United States.
I'm far from certain but my hunch is that the large majority of the country's Jews live within what's called "Greater London".
Thought you might want to weigh in here.
"Nauseating" would be putting it mildly.
No, that can’t be
The BLM SPLC and ADL say no, don’t come here
You are probably correct.
Those of us who live 30-50 miles from an Oakland, San Jose, LA, Portland, Seattle or ___________, feel reasonably safe.
However, with today’s transportation and George $oreA$$ providing buses and paying thugs to riot, have that concern in our minds.
Very sad. How many of them are old enough to remember fleeing to England to escape the first Nazis?

Today’s Germans are no different.....they applaud the exits of Jews. One way or anorher.
They are welcome here. Let them come and bring their talent and money.
They will have to face our muzzies and the RATs, which is just as bad.
A disgraceful indictment of U.K. policies (or lack thereof.)
“Thought you might want to weigh in here.”
Not except to say I was briefly detained for police in London for the crime of being overtly Jewish outside.
Apparently, being overtly Jewish outside breaches the peace.
Mind you, I am Modern Orthodox, not a Hasid (although I do have a proper beard (albeit kept tight because of my job) and tend to wear black or navy blue suits.
Basically, my crime was looking Jewish and wearing a yarmulke.
Detained??? Would you care to divulge the ethnicity/race of the officer(s) involved? Aren't British police obligated to inform one as to why he/she is being detained? ("You,sir,are being detained under the Crimes Against Overly Sensitive Politicians Act")
Don't know if you've ever been to New York (I get there fairly regularly) but if you walk down any street in Lower Manhattan you're almost tripping over people with yarmulkes.I understand that that's even more true in parts of Brooklyn.And I,at least,never read about harassment.
