    852 cases of anti-semitism reported in France in the last two years, on average 426 a year in a country as vast as France with a population of 67 million people. 637 cases reported in 10 months in the Labour Party alone, with just 500,000 members. If France has a problem with anti-semitism, what do those figures say about the Labour Party ?

    No snowflakes in France sinkov, they adorn yellow jackets and go and get the sh'it kicked out of them by the fascist police.

    I lived in France for eight years BT, anti-semitism was always a problem, the Jewish community, particularly around Paris, were constantly expressing their concerns and fears. Virtually all of the attacks on the Jewish community, and there were many, were perpetrated by Islamists or Muslims. I used to read both French and English newspapers back then, the attacks on Jews by Islamists were widely reported in the French media, but never saw the light of day in the English media. All this was long before anti-semitism became a feature of Labour Party politics, but I think you'll find that the vast majority of attacks on Jewish people in France are still perpetrated by Islamists.

    I sincerely believe that to be the case here but our PC Brigade are too scared to say so.

    And is still there.

    "official data suggested there had been a 74% rise in anti-Semitic attacks in France last year".
