Edit. Just seen that badger started a thread on this yesterday. Which comes as no surprise as for as long as I can remember badger has always been consistent in condemning all racism no matter where it stems from.

Is that how it goes? If the representatives of the British Jewish community say they are then yes.
Probably best to let a minority define who they believe is a threat to their community. That's how it goes.
Doesn't work like that. The community or any Jewish group can highlight their concerns but then you must investigate those concerns and address the evidence. It's the same approach the McPherson report recommends.
Or do you think we should just accept the view of those who call muslims an existential threat to white people when there's no evidence for that on the wider scale?
But you and others are interested in accusations not evidence because you know the evidence doesn't show an existential threat. Even the EHRC investigation is about the handling of accusations FFS
It's so blatantly and politically transparent, it's untrue.

The Board of Deputies are elected by each Synagogue you muppet. They aren’t self appointed.
Christ you are ignorant.
Don't be obtuse.
They don't actually represent the community as a whole. As you say they're voted by the synagogues which suggests a particularly conservative and traditional slice right there.

“ The Board comprises Deputies elected by affiliated individual synagogues, confederations of synagogues, and other organisations within the Jewish community such as charities and youth groups. It serves as the principal reference point for government, the media and wider society.”

Eh? Half of the Jewish community aren't even attached to a synagogue. And then we're talking about the approved representative from an often conservative and traditional standpoint.
Stop being silly. It doesn't mean they can't talk for the community as much as they want to, but get real FFS.

What's the turn out ....is it first past the post....what is the average number of candidates per post, what percentage of those identifying as Jewish attend their synagogue....so many ignorant questions.....not being ignorant I am sure you will know the answers.

Or 'self appointed' as 'representatives'....thanks for clearing that up.
Edit....try thinking along the lines of union leaders and workers if it is more comfortable for you!!

"They break our legs and tell us to be grateful when they offer us crutches."
self-appointed adjective adjective: self-appointed having assumed a position or role without the endorsement of others.
The BOD are elected.
Just put your hands up, admit your ignorance on the subject and move on Banksy rage than trying to dig yourself even deeper.
So they are elected by a minority and then appoint themselves as public representatives.....thanks for confirming your ignorance...glad to help. It is almost like you willfully misrepresent reality for spurious motives.

In case you missed it GB....let's see how representative of the whole Jewish community they are!
"They break our legs and tell us to be grateful when they offer us crutches."
Maybe 'GlasgowBlue appointed representatives of the Jewish community would be more accurate tbf.
You know that thing I said about keep digging?
Look, most normal people would be quite happy to join in the condemnation of a Tory MP sharing a platform with homophobes, racists and antisemites instead of trying to score points off another poster.
That it is you, mad Harry, DK doing it with and mr passive aggressive downvoting in the background suggests I’m doing something right.
Oh dear GB, schooled again by an 'ignorant' @narchist.....that has to hurt!
4 replies to me whilst I was in transit suggests you are getting a little obsessive again Banksy. Step away from the keyboard and take a nice deep breath.

What’s your end game here Banksy?
I mean in the surface it appears you are trying to delegitimise the main body in this country who represent the British Jewish community because they say things you don’t like. Would you so the same to the Muslim Council of Great Britain?
Add this to your troubling past of repeating anti Jewish tropes of duel loyalty, Jews controlling the media, banking and world politics, I get the impression that you don’t like Jewish people or their institutions that much.
Unless they are your tokens who subscribe to your political viewpoint. They are the good Jews right?
