Campaign Against Antisemitism members are also asking the prime minister: “What’s the plan?”

Prime Minister Keir Starmer has described Wednesday’s stabbing of two Jews in London by a Somali-born British citizen—who police believe to be a terrorist, and who may have been backed by an Islamic group associated with the Iranian regime—as “utterly appalling.”

Nigel Farage responded that “the usual” claim “justice will be served” does not go far enough—not least because “it won’t.”

The Reform leader called on officials to designate the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps as a terrorist organisation, clamp down on the operations of the Muslim Brotherhood, and put a stop to “hate marches.”

Something much bigger needs to happen. My thoughts are with the community, but I’m afraid we need action.

Farage has also previously linked antisemitic attacks with “the failures of uncontrolled immigration and the toxic cocktail of multiculturalism with a lack of integration.”

Reform’s Richard Tice also on Wednesday spoke at a demonstration against antisemitism, asking: “How long must this go on? When do we say enough is enough? Now is enough.”

He added that “this has happened” because of “weak, feeble, gutless leadership … year after year after year”—that is to suggest, both under Labour and the Conservatives.

The 45-year-old suspect is in police custody. The two victims, one in his 70s and another in his 30s, remain in a stable condition in hospital.

One of these victims has blamed Labour for making London “not safe for Jewish people.”

Members of the Campaign Against Antisemitism group will also gather outside Downing Street, the home of the prime minister, on Thursday evening, to ask Starmer “a simple question: what’s the plan?”

Six months ago we stood outside Downing Street after the fatal terrorist attack [at] Heaton Park Synagogue. Things have only got worse. More Jews attacked. Synagogues burned. More lives at risk. … We must take this to the prime minister’s door. He’s had plenty of time. What is he actually going to do?

  1. The answer to the muslim problem is to send them back to muslim countries. They don’t like Jews and Christians. So why are Muslims here? They don’t like our Laws and won’t assimilate. So why allow them here? Send them home.
