“Intimidating” leaflets handed out in London’s hospitals

Campaign group Global Health for Palestine has reportedly been handing out leaflets at hospitals across London, protesting the Government’s efforts to fight antisemitism.

The leaflets, titled “Hands off our health workers”, reportedly warn against a recommendation made to and accepted by the Government to introduce “enhanced antisemitism training” in the NHS. The leaflets erroneously describe the training as “pro-Israel indoctrination”. They also wrongly describe the International (IHRA) Definition of Antisemitism, adopted by many public bodies including numerous NHS trusts, as “discredited and hopelessly flawed”, and casually accuse the Jewish state of “deliberate starving” and “shooting toddlers in the head”.

The leaflets also appear to protest against NHS staff being forbidden from wearing Palestine symbols at work, and ludicrously even encourage patients to wear them instead.

The list of hospitals targeted by the pamphleteers reportedly includes the Royal Free Hospital in Hampstead, which serves a large Jewish population.

Jewish patients should not have to worry about the quality of the treatment they receive because they fear a doctor or nurse may deem them an acceptable target. All patients deserve to be treated by practitioners who are concerned first and foremost about their health, not promoting particularly political or even racist agendas.

Sadly, as our own documentary ‘Malignant’ revealed, this trend is rampant in British medicine. Watch the documentary at https://t.co/50mzwvVxiB.

CAA can reveal that several of the co-proposers behind the Green Party’s ‘Zionism is racism’ motion, which was approved at their Party conference this autumn, appear to have expressed antisemitic rhetoric, or support for Palestine Action, a proscribed terrorist organisation.

These include:

• Lubna Speitan, the author behind the motion, who during a speech in Birmingham in October 2025 apparently said: “I support our right to the armed struggle. We must never deny that. [...] I will refuse to condemn the resistance of any oppressed and occupied people because we have that right. Only we can claim self-defense. Not the occupier.” CAA has since reported Ms Speitan to the police, after she apparently called for Zionists to be “hunted” at a separate event.

• Dr Ghada Karmi, who described Israel’s “weaponization of antisemitism” in a 2024 Mondoweiss article titled “The true lesson of October 7 is that Israel cannot be reformed.” At a Hackney Labour meeting in September 2021, Dr Karmi accused the Labour leadership of “using this antisemitism smear accusation” as a “weapon” to expel and suspend party members.

• Yara El-Issa, who is an organiser for the Palestinian Youth Movement, which CAA previously raised concerns about after footage from a summer camp hosted by the organisation appeared to show children being encouraged to chant “We will crush Zionism” and “Young people, rise up, our revolution is an Arab revolution.”

• Simon Hales, a serial Green Party candidate, who has published multiple hateful posts on X, including one post where he apparently said: “Wipe the Zionist Entity off the map!” He also apparently posted: “Well done Palestine Action. F*** Israel and its backers”, and “F*** everyone who voted for proscription”.

• Amanda Onuwuemene, a Green Councillor for Wirral Council, apparently posted on X that “Yahya Sinwar’s death in battle trying to beat back a drone with a stick was ‘how heroes die’.”

Once again, a faction in UK politics is trying to redefine antisemitism to suit its extremist views, just as we saw in the years of Jeremy Corbyn’s leadership of Labour.

72% of British Jews think that the Greens are too tolerant of antisemitism, according to our polling. These revelations around the insidious network of Party members who have obsessively pushed this evil motion will do nothing to negate the Jewish community’s bleak perception of the Greens.

We will not stand idly by as extremists hijack a political party and make antisemitism its openly stated policy, which is why we have referred the Green Party to the EHRC, just as we did Labour under Corbyn.

Sir David Bell’s review into antisemitism in schools and colleges focused on England, but antisemitism is rife in schools across the United Kingdom.

That includes Wales, and we thank @SamRowlands_ for raising this issue in the Senedd.

Governments, schools and other relevant bodies across the UK must confront antisemitic hate in the classroom.

Apparently even coexistence through music counts as propaganda now.

Last night, anti-Israel demonstrators held a protest outside the British Library in London against a performance by an Arab-Jewish ensemble associated with the Israeli Philharmonic Orchestra.

The concert’s organisers had reportedly billed it as an evening of “extraordinary music and shared humanity”, bringing together Arab and Jewish musicians to play classical and traditional Middle Eastern music.

The anti-Israel mob appears to have seen the event differently. In a notice posted on social media, the performance was branded as “a propaganda campaign attempting to distract from Israel’s genocide”.

Our polling shows that 84% of British Jews see boycotts of Israeli artists as intimidation. Yet, anti-Israel obsessives have chosen to demonstrate against an event bringing Arabs and Jews together. The only thing it is likely to achieve is intimidating concert-goers who simply want a good night out.

If even a celebration of Arab-Jewish unity is a target, this was never about changing policy – it’s about erasing any connection to the world’s only Jewish state.

Once again, the anti-Israel mob reveal their true colours for the country to see.

Meet Alice.

She posted a video featuring Hamas spokesperson Abu Obeida on her Hinge profile.

Any suggestion of support for a proscribed terrorist group has no place on dating apps or in British society.

This profile has been reported to Counter Terrorism Policing.

@Hinge, will you take action?

Police open investigation following alleged antisemitic outburst in Glasgow cinema

According to an eyewitness, a man apparently shouted that he “thought Hitler was right for committing genocide against Jewish people” following a screening of the UK documentary film NAZA at Glasgow Film Theatre last month.

The man was reportedly removed from the premises by security staff.

These alleged comments appear to justify the Holocaust, which would be a clear breach of the International (IHRA) Definition of Antisemitism.

That these abhorrent views were apparently expressed after a screening of a film purporting to examine Israel’s conduct in Gaza shows how the relentless targeting of the world’s only Jewish state fuels antisemitism.

We expect Police Scotland to take robust action.

Muslims who condemn 7th October “bear shame of supporting Jews”, says Green Party councillor.

According to @JewishChron, a Green Party local councillor has a history of concerning online rhetoric regarding Jews and Israel.

Cllr Mustafa Ahmed, who was elected onto the Burngreave ward on Sheffield City Council in May 2026, allegedly wrote a post on his Facebook account days after Hamas’ antisemitic terrorist attack on Israel which said: “Supporting a disbeliever against a Muslim is apostasy”, and continued: “This religion will triumph with or without you. You alone will bear the shame of supporting the Jews! And so as not to appear ridiculous, do not belittle what has happened. The occupiers themselves have admitted that what happened was astonishing and shocking. So don’t be more Jewish than the Jews!”

Other posts reportedly found on Cllr Ahmed’s social media are also of concern, including one in which he shares footage of the 2025 Iranian missile strikes on Israel, along with a song that apparently contains a prayer against Jews and includes the line: “O Allah, deal with the criminal Zionists. O Allah, deal with the aggressor Jews.”

Cllr Ahmed is also said to be a prominent supporter of the Greens’ antisemitic “Zionism is racism” motion.

Our lawyers will be examining this reported material.

Tower Hamlets councillor reportedly part of group that called for Israeli player to be kicked out of West Ham

It has been revealed that local Tower Hamlets councillor Faysal Ahmed is a member of a Facebook group which posted a video labelling West Ham football player Manor Solomon a “baby killer”, and called for his dismissal from the team because he completed mandatory military service in the IDF prior to his football career.

Cllr Ahmed, who is reportedly the Council’s Cabinet Member for Children, Young People and Life Changes, appears to be active on the Tower Hamlets Palestine Solidarity Network (THPSN) group. He is listed as a “Top Voice”, a role which is described as an individual who “consistently share[s] content your group values.”

We understand that the group also includes multiple other Tower Hamlets councillors.

Local councillors should be focused on local issues. Cllr Ahmed is meant to be looking after the borough’s young people, not apparently contributing to a social media group which is attempting to hound a player out of a football club because of their connection to the Jewish state.

With antisemitism at record levels and Jews increasingly pushed out of public and professional life, politicians should be putting out the fire, not fanning the flames.

Tower Hamlets Council must investigate the activities of any councillor who is purportedly a member of this heinous group.

Did @BBC lie to us?

A year and a half ago, when the BBC was engulfed in a previous antisemitism scandal and under pressure from us and others, they scrambled to do damage control.

As part of that exercise, they quietly promised the Jewish community a review into their Gaza coverage. There was no major announcement, but they privately assured us at CAA that a wide-ranging internal investigation would take place.

A year and a half on, no such review has been launched, let alone concluded.

So did they ever intend to hold an investigation, or are they just too incompetent to have initiated it after many many months?

Now the Corporation is engulfed in yet another major antisemitism controversy in what seems to have become a regular tradition.

After we alerted @Telegraph exclusively to what has transpired – or rather what hasn’t – they also got in touch with the BBC, which told them that “The independent review of the BBC’s output of the conflict in the Middle East will be a significant piece of work. Due to the complexity and sensitivity of this, time and care are being taken to consider both who will conduct the review and its scope. We expect to publish the terms of reference soon so work can commence imminently.”

“Time” is an understatement. And it is exactly what the Jewish community doesn’t have.

The BBC’s biased coverage is fuelling antisemitism in Britain and around the world, and recent revelations show that it may well stem from a workplace culture in which Jewish people are marginalised, belittled or worse.

The BBC cannot constantly be allowed to mark its own homework: the Culture Secretary @LisaNandy must now step in and impose an independent investigation into the BBC’s coverage of matters of Jewish interest, its coverage of Gaza and its treatment of Jewish employees and partners.

It is past time for our national broadcaster – which we all pay for – to be held to account. In the meantime, the licence fee should be suspended https://t.co/yI0VZ778iv

Remembrance is a time to honour the sacrifices of those who have fought to defend our country and our way of life.

It is an opportunity to salute those who serve, previously served or who made the ultimate sacrifice.

But sadly, not everyone agrees.

Over the last few years, statues have been desecrated, war memorials vandalised and the sacrifice of our armed forces disrespected – all in the name of ‘Palestine’.

Here are some examples:

We are grateful to the London Assembly for standing up to racism against Jewish people.

We have referred the Green Party to the EHRC following the passage of the antisemitic ‘Zionism is racism’ motion.

[Campaign Against Antisemitism @antisemitism]

We welcome the London Assembly passing a motion to condemn the Green Party’s “Zionism is racism” policy.

The motion text reads “This Assembly strongly condemns the recent Green Party motion” and that “This Assembly reaffirms that antisemitism must be challenged wherever it appears”.

Assembly Members from across the political spectrum spoke out, including Labour’s Marina Ahmed @LabourMarina, who outlined the devastating impact that hate against Jews has in London.

For Reform UK, @AlexWilsonAM said “To be enshrined, now, at the heart of a policy platform of a national party is not something I ever thought we would see in 21st century Britain.”
