But what is anybody going to do about the growing anti-semitism thats currently poisoning certain sections on the left? Just pretend it doesn't exist as people have done for the previous 1000 years.

Can't say I've ever met come across any anti-Semitism on the left. Have had the pleasure to meet many Jews that filled me in on the Jewish Socialist tradition though.

Broxbourne Against Racism will be marking Holocaust Memorial Day on January 27th 2004. The exact form this will take shall be anounced on our website soon.
