The question

To ask the Secretary of State for Housing, Communities and Local Government, what assessment he has made of the trends in the level of antisemitism in the City of Bristol.

Answered by Miatta Fahnbulleh

Antisemitism has absolutely no place in our society, which is why we’re taking a strong lead in tackling it in all its forms, wherever it manifests.

We work closely with partners to ensure the safety and security of Jewish communities throughout the UK.

This includes working together with the Jewish community to monitor levels of religiously motivated hatred. We continue to closely observe rates of antisemitism across the country and will make the necessary interventions to combat antisemitism in all corners of our society.
