In the UK however, as a small child, he was advised not to tell his school mates that he was Jewish as there would be repercussions.
Whereas...my grandmother who survived the deathcamps, just, found nothing but acceptance in the UK and became a very proud Brit.

Didn't you say she was about to hot tail it out of here if Corbyn had won, to avoid the inevitable, and definitely not made up, Corbyn pogrom?

I'm glad she had a better experience because antisemitism was very virulent in Britain at that time. There were anti-Jewish riots in 1947 in a number of British cities.
Ernest Bevin, foreign secretary of Clement Attlee was regularly reported in papers like the Daily Mail for his vitriol against the Jews. He even started a conspiracy, that in some circles, lives to this day.

You can always do your own research.
Anyway, I believe my father-in-law, but it matters not if you don't, after all, this is just an anonymous forum where people can make up ****.

Going into the 1940s archives can be problematic, but things are there.
George Orwell was a Jew and he wrote 50 essays about antisemitism in the UK.

Honestly, it's as if anti-Semitism is news to you. Jews have been thrown out of every decent country in Europe in the past, it's been no worse in the UK than anywhere else despite how many times you Google it. It's tedious watching you use your tenuous links to Judaism to try to make yourself sound more informed. It's just not working.

Labour have always had a bit of a problem with Jews.

You're making this up. As you know, AS has been the traditional hobby horse of the right. This was accepted wisdom until a leader of the labour party said we should support the Palestinian struggle for freedom, then all of a sudden everyone on the left was an anti semite according to weirdos and the media.

What's more likely; that lifelong anti racists suddenly started picking on a single minority, or that the folks who have labelled brown immigrants and asylum seekers as trash, and are dripping with racism from every pore, are the real anti racists?
