British Jews Report Distrust in UK Institutions Over Antisemitism Handling
A report titled 'Listening to British Jews,' compiled by Professor Shani Orgad at the London School of Economics and Political Science, reveals a significant loss of trust among British Jews in major UK institutions. Conducted between December 2025 and March 2026, the study involved six focus groups and highlighted feelings of abandonment and betrayal by the police, education system, media, and legal system. Participants expressed concerns over inadequate protection and response to antisemitic incidents, particularly in schools and universities. The report calls for a comprehensive understanding of the Jewish community's views and experiences to introduce meaningful changes.
