I live in Brighton with my Jewish hubby and child.

When antisemites had hateful events, when one wanted to march on a synagogue. When the Labour conference descended and antisemitism ravaged my city.

Almost nothing was done to stop it.

Now I know why. https://www.theargus.co.uk/news/18833142.former-brighton-leaders-role-office-embroiled-ehrc-report/">https://www.theargus.co.uk/news/1883...
Labour rarely rejected or acted on antisemitism but even when they did, those hateful few still tormented the Jewish community.

Chris Williamson brought his hateful roadshow to town and the community was left mostly alone to fight. https://twitter.com/heidibachram/status/1159564199368019968">https://twitter.com/heidibach...
When the Labour Party conference descended upon Brighton, the council leader promised to protect the Jewish community from harm.

She did almost nothing.

Now I know why. https://twitter.com/heidibachram/status/1176921048895410178">https://twitter.com/heidibach...
Antisemitism must NEVER be normal in Brighton again.

The spirit of welcome, of acceptance, of love must be restored.

Nancy Platts and all those culpable should be removed from positions of power.

Now.
