Thousands expected at rally against antisemitism this Sunday
National solidarity march meets at Royal Courts of Justice
Thousands are expected in central London this Sunday 26 November for a 90-minute march protesting against surging levels of antisemitism across the UK.
The event, organised by volunteer-led charity, Campaign Against Antisemitism, starts from the Royal Courts of Justice.
A spokesperson for Campaign Against Antisemitism said: “Week after week, central London has become a no-go zone for Jews. We have witnessed mass criminality, including glorification of terrorism, support for banned terrorist organisations such as Hamas, and incitement to racial or religious hatred against Jews. The sad truth is that Jews do not feel safe in our capital city.
“Britain is known for its tolerance and decency, and we know that the people of this country stand with the Jewish community in this difficult time. That is why those who stand with British Jews from up and down the UK, will be marching in London this Sunday in solidarity against antisemitism.”
Earlier this month in France over 180,000 took part in marches against antisemitism across the country, with over 100,000 in Paris alone.
While ten of thousands also took part in a pro-Israel demo in Washington DC, in the United States.
The CAA march will be protected by Metropolitan Police officers.

Engaging
Being a community platform means so much more than producing a newspaper and website. One of our proudest roles is media partnering with our invaluable charities to amplify the outstanding work they do to help us all.
Celebrating
There’s no shortage of oys in the world but Jewish News takes every opportunity to celebrate the joys too, through projects like Night of Heroes, 40 Under 40 and other compelling countdowns that make the community kvell with pride.
Pioneering
In the first collaboration between media outlets from different faiths, Jewish News worked with British Muslim TV and Church Times to produce a list of young activists leading the way on interfaith understanding.
Campaigning
Royal Mail issued a stamp honouring Holocaust hero Sir Nicholas Winton after a Jewish News campaign attracted more than 100,000 backers. Jewish Newsalso produces special editions of the paper highlighting pressing issues including mental health and Holocaust remembrance.
Easy access
In an age when news is readily accessible, Jewish News provides high-quality content free online and offline, removing any financial barriers to connecting people.
Voice of our community to wider society
The Jewish News team regularly appears on TV, radio and on the pages of the national press to comment on stories about the Jewish community. Easy access to the paper on the streets of London also means Jewish News provides an invaluable window into the community for the country at large.
We hope you agree all this is worth preserving.
