In the face of a significant rise of antisemitism across the UK, we ask the Government to fund permanent 24-hour police patrols in Jewish communities.

Following the antisemitic attacks, including on voluntary run ambulances that serve the Golders Green Community, we ask that the Government do more than offer what we feel are empty words of solidarity and shock. We believe our community needs a visible and permanent police presence that is on patrol 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. We feel closing police stations and reducing police patrols by foot and car play their part in creating a breeding ground where antisemitic attacks are more likely to take place.

Government response

On 13 July, we announced over £250m to increase policing in Jewish communities, in addition to the £25m announced in April. Operational decisions, such as 24/7 police patrols, are for police forces.
