Sadiq Khan apologises to chief rabbi for hinting at Islamophobia

Sadiq Khan has apologised to the chief rabbi for suggesting that Jewish leaders only criticised his call for a ceasefire in Gaza due to his Muslim-sounding name.

The mayor of London called for a ceasefire early in the conflict in Israel and Gaza, but was criticised by Sir Ephraim Mirvis, who said in November that Khan’s call was “irresponsible” and that a ceasefire would be “a stepping stone to yet more Hamas brutality”.
