What we heard from @RobertJenrick was parroting Israeli propaganda & rhetoric of local lobby groups. These groups been calling demonstrations #Antisemitic & trying every mean to justify barbarity of Israeli

They legitimise every #Israeli atrocity & #WarCrimes frm settlements, settler violence, #SiegeOfGaza to bombing of infrastructure & killing of children.
