Time for Labour’s leaders to call their opponents’ bluff
Labour needs to set its own agenda rather than follow that of right-wing papers and unrepresentative Jewish ‘leaders,’ says DAVID ROSENBERG

JEWISH families in Dollis Hill, north-west London, woke last Sunday to find they had been the targets of a horrifying anti-semitic attack. 

This was not an unpleasant Facebook post or a garbled report of what someone said to someone else about what was said at a meeting, but huge swastikas and nazi SS symbols painted on the pavement outside houses in a street where many Jewish people live, on the window at a bus stop and on street signs. 

It was similar to a spate of incidents that targeted Jewish families in another part of north-west London in January 2017.
