Really?? How is a known mentally ill man stabbing 2 people ""the biggest national security emergency"?? Just how? The planes carrying Bombs to bomb Iran and Gaza from Fairfor is higher surely??

@BBCPolitics Not the Pakistani Rape gangs? Not the fact that we are now the rape capital of Europe? Where was the emergency COBRA meeting for the Southport murders or for Wayne Broadhurst?

Any marches promoting hate should never be tolerated in our country. I feel so sorry for the Jewish community. It’s a national emergency now because this weak government allowed those marches.

Just throwing money at something won't fix the wider issue and she knows it. Ban the hate marches, proscribe the IRGC and Muslim Brotherhood and enforce the law and our borders.

Please BBC explain why today's attack on two Jewish ppl are a terror attack and why in describing the old Compton Street attack of 1999 and recurrence 20 year on you don't use the word terror. #jewslonfon #gaylondon #racistlondon

How is Jonathan Hall 'independent'? He seems entirely dependent on paranoia and double standards #r4today #bbcwato #bbcpm

Why is a real or perceived threat to 0.5% of the population "the biggest NATIONAL security emergency"?

The British have been complicit in genocide in Gaza. The greatest European crime against humanity since the Holocaust.

What about the far right incited violence against communities in the UK? Was it a targeted attack against the Jewish community specifically or an individual with mental health issues who waged an attack against ‘people’ in the area? Something is amiss.

The made up 'far right' won't be involved, as it's made up by MSM to divert from the factual issue at hand. Watch for Islamists as per. The only threat in the UK, as continually proven. Fuck anyone who defends them, the chase for virtue amongst their wrong'un peers is blinding.

Missed opportunity for the Sec to call out the moderate Muslim community for its failure of calling out and dealing with the extreme minority in its midst that are perpetually attacking

When a government's own terrorism adviser calls rising antisemitic attacks the 'biggest national security emergency' in a decade, we've moved beyond politics. This isn't just about community safety it's a stress test for British democracy itself. Words and condolences are no longer enough. If targeted violence becomes routine, the fabric of the nation unravels not with a bang, but with every unanswered knife
