In 2019, nearly 300,000 Jews are living in fear for their own future and their own security.These were the words of World Zionist Organization (WZO) vice chairman Yaakov Hagoel, who has called on the British government to fight the scourge of antisemitism as concerns mount over the possibility that UK Labour Party leader Jeremy Corbyn could become the countrys next prime minister.In an exclusive letter to The Jerusalem Post on Wednesday, Hagoel said that in 2019, one of the top contenders for the United Kingdoms leadership is a declared antisemite, a hater of Israel and a terrorist supporter.He said that attempts to conceal antisemitic views among Labour Party leaders have been shattered every day with the harsh and problematic statements under the leadership of Jeremy Corbyn and his associates.In 2019, British Jewry faces increasing concern about identifying as Jews, Hagoel continued. Jewish symbols are hidden in fear of rising antisemitism on the streets of Britain.Hagoel stressed that Today, a large, well-established and influential political party is giving a tailwind to bigotry against Jews, officially, without masks and without fear.In a strong message to the UK government, Hagoel said that the WZO demand[s] the British government [to] immediately denounce the rising antisemitism in its street, and also called for practical action to be taken, not just talk we demand educational programs and legislation.Hagoel also demanded the United Kingdom to take immediate action to protect her Jewish citizens through physical and legal protection.It is the duty of all world governments to ensure the safety and security of the various communities living in their country, regardless of their religious or national background, he concluded.During a BBC interview on Tuesday night, Corbyn refused to apologize to the Jewish community about how he has handled the Labour antisemitism storm.
