I'm not nearly informed on the subject enough to comment much but having been to London a lot recently - particularly areas of London that have a higher number of Jewish inhabitants - I've been quite surprised by how quiet it is. Perhaps just compared to the times I've stayed in the South/West of the city

But being from a rural part of the country, I guess I'd built up an idea that factions and local communities in London being so race-specific or religion-specific would sort of result in a prototype of Israel on a much smaller scale... not that I was expecting to have to head into London with a hard hat and some kevlar armour or anything, but I'm just from such a sheltered background that it seemed like that was a nightmare waiting to happen.

That said, this 36% rise in antisemitic hate crime the past year mentioned in this article is alarming, so like I said, I can't really comment... but it seems curiously at odds with their other survey:

However, a separate YouGov survey, carried out for the CAA, found that anti-Semitic attitudes in UK society, measured by how many respondents agreed with seven anti-Semitic statements, were declining, with the number of people who agreed with at least one statement down from 45% in 2015 to 36% in 2017.

So I'm not sure if it's just a problem with more crime.
