“[It] does fuel that sort of sense that we should treat anything to do with Israel as dodgy, dangerous … that has in turn created an atmosphere in which jew hatred at home has become acceptable.” The language which Andy Burnham’s government has used regarding its reset of Anglo-Israeli relations has painted Israel as a “pariah” state, and risks increasing antisemitic sentiment at home, says crossbench peer and director of the Academy of Ideas Claire Fox.
