@simonmaginn I'm not engaging further. Let's put this in simple terms. The podcast talks about antisemitism suffered by the Jewish community in the UK. Backed up by statistics from multiple sources. You tag me in a post denying the findings with the hashtag #itwasascam

@theclawsoftime @simonmaginn @nadsat11 Please actually listen to the podcast which addresses this, rather than the garbage Simon Maginn is posting

@simonmaginn 1. You haven't even bothered listening to the podcast, so how on earth can you claim to know what's within. 2. I've not mentioned Corbyn or Labour. That's your obsession.

@simonmaginn Pro-Palestinian activism isn't antisemitism. Antisemitism is antisemitism. All available data and literature shows an enormous rise over the past year. Check your biases and your obsession with trying to deny the experiences of Jewish people.

@simonmaginn @MsParaDoxy No it is not a secret. The figures were from CST. Roughly same as Home Office: "Annually, there were 3,282 religious hate crimes targeted at Jewish people in the year ending March 2024, more than double the number recorded the previous year (1,543)".

@simonmaginn I never once implied that. Perhaps actually listen to the podcast before making inaccurate and biased comments. What is your obsession with trying to undermine and diminish concerns about antisemitism? What makes this your area of expertise?

@simonmaginn Did you even listen to the podcast before deciding to post nonsense to your followers?

@Declanlyall @ITVOnAssignment @ITV Antisemitism was a term invented in Germany specifically to refer to anti-Jewish hatred. Pretty problematic to insist all Jewish people need to take DNA tests... And 'angry at' Jews is just a synonym for blaming Jews. The fundamental concept is the same.

@Declanlyall @ITVOnAssignment @ITV Blaming all Jews around the world for what's happening in Gaza is literal antisemitism... Also - perhaps read into the actual etymology: "The term anti-Semitism was coined in 1879 by the German agitator Wilhelm Marr to designate anti-Jewish campaigns"

@callascasement @ITV This was a piece about the Jewish community and antisemitism in France, not Israel. Strange you consider this "propaganda".

It was only possible through the bravery of the families that opened up to us. Their testimonies had instant effect - viewers immediately got in touch to say they were just about to take the same deadly pills before watching the report.

@PatrickrussITV The effect was immediate - viewers calling and emailing to say that they had been just about to take pills from these exact websites but threw them away once they watched the report. This is exactly why we wanted to cover this story.
