Speaking in the House of Lords on 13 January 2026

Debate

Crime and Policing Bill

Contribution

That amendment should, of course, be supported in the light of the tragedies at Manchester Synagogue, Bondi Beach and elsewhere, but I say further that the noble Lord, Lord Leigh of Hurley, is absolutely right. He and others have spoken in strong terms about the dangers of antisemitism. It is a danger of extreme wickedness, and I agree with him and others who have spoken about it. The Government need to be very careful in that regard. I take pleasure in agreeing, perhaps unusually, with the noble Lord, Lord Blencathra, on this amendment.
