“This important report must serve as a warning to everyone to do more to stop anti-Semitism in Britain. This rise in anti-Semitism is appalling and completely unacceptable.

“The Community Security Trust do vital work to protect and provide security for the Jewish community. We must support them not only to raise the profile of this issue, but also to ensure continued close working with the police so that hate crimes can be investigated and prosecuted and communities can be kept safe.

“But more also needs to be done to stop prejudice and hatred in the first place - from promoting common values in schools and communities, to getting companies like Twitter to take stronger action against hate crimes on their platforms, challenging those who use foreign policy to spread discrimination and hostility, and renewing determination to tackle both Islamist and far right extremism.”
