Now Bethnal Green schoolkids are chanting anti-Semitic slogans – and no one seems to care.
The London I love, cherish and grew up in feels like it is about to disappear.
On Thursday last week, 400 children skipped school to march through Bethnal Green to protest against Israel. The marchers demanded a ‘ceasefire’, but made no reference whatsoever to the act that started Israel’s assault on Gaza – Hamas’s murder of Israeli civilians and taking of hostages on 7 October.
