The ones in my area came in envelopes - you couldn't tell what it was until opened.
Quite how I'm on the their list is a mystery! They even sent me two.

Also got one from the Tory saying "thanks for the conversation on your doorstep". Yeaahhh, i don't do opening the door unless it's planned visit!

Dreadful events in Golders Green. Thankfully sounds as if the two men stabbed are stable and should be okay physically.

The rise of antisemitism at present is shocking.

Its dreadful mate

Living in the UK is like going back to the 80s, antisemitism on the rise, Chinese and Indian restaurants being attacked, racism at its purest form on the rise.

People need to really check themselves when they support people like TR or make all these flippant remarks like "immigrants are the issue". Picking sides on conflicts like its like picking the weekends pools just to peddle already rooted hatred, helps absolutely no one.

The whole division being caused in this country because of rhetoric that us Jews should somehow hated Muslims and vice versa, peddled by people who are neither, on both sides of the divide. People need to keep their own counsel and let us actual Jews and Muslims decide what and who we should like and not.

I think the jewish thing is mainly Netanyahu's doing, rather than something homegrown or that has grown from the bottom up. What he sows, because of that unfortunate association, jewish people around the world are condemned to suffer the consequences of

Racism across the board has increased in the past few years for the first time in living memory, i agree. And that's really disappointing to see. I'd still fundamentally blame ever increasing wealth inequality and the propaganda used to deflect from that as the root cause

I think he plays to it, but also I think the issue comes that a number of online mouth pieces like TR who has declared his stance with Jews (we don't want him BTW) who are then playing this "they hate you and you hate them card" and the whole anti Muslim card which undoubtedly creates division. The same is of the left too, this whole rhetoric about Jews being monsters and complicit in all Israel does is BS, its just playing into what we are seeing now.

Its clear as day that people are being provoked by individuals into this, thats why Jews are being attacked, thats why shopkeepers are locking themselves in shops under attack because they have brown skin.

On what basis has there been ever increasing wealth inequality and if there has been, on what basis does that link to increased racism/anti-semitism etc?

Antisemitism is very real. And it is absolutely on the spike. You cannot make excuses for people who conflate Zionism/Israeli state with someone simply being Jewish. Any whataboutery on the topic is not on. Especially right now.

There are no excuses on all levels mate. This country has turned into a divisive mess.

Someone on here said recently "people are not influenced by social media".............all of this stuff we are seeing up and down the country is a direct result of social media
 
He is bang on here............shame a few on here who claimed all Muslims were more likely XYZ could not be as balanced...........if this cnut can get it then I am sure Silly, Rat, Bat, Danish types could
