“No Jews are allowed to pass here,” says teenage girl brandishing broomstick to Jewish boys on way to synagogue in Golders Green

A teenage girl brandishing a broomstick told Jewish boys on their way to synagogue on Friday evening that “no Jews are allowed to pass here.”

The incident took place at around 16:45 on Friday 7th February on the corner of Armitage Road in Golders Green and was reported by Shomrim North West London, the Jewish volunteer neighbourhood watch patrol.

Campaign Against Antisemitism’s analysis of Home Office statistics shows that an average of over three hate crimes are directed at Jews every single day in England and Wales, with Jews almost four times more likely to be targets of hate crimes than any other faith group.
