Always amazes me that humans obsess on one issue so much that they’d fixate on it to the point of harassing a bloke going about his day because he might just have a difference of opinion to them on one particular issue. Bizarre.
Whatever happened to live and let live. [Post edited 15 Feb 21:58]

He doesn't even have a difference of opinion with them. He's never made a comment on the issue. He's being harassed because he is Jewish.
It's pure racism. This is where we are in 2026. [Post edited 15 Feb 22:00]

What a tvvat … obviously not Matt Lucas.
Not that it matters (apparently it does to many) I had no idea he was Jewish…. Which I have to say growing up in the UK in the 70’s,80’s and the 90’s I never recall seeing or being aware that it was “an issue” to be, in fact the only time I was aware of it was that a lot of my favourite comedians were Jewish and that’s it…appears the UK has changed a lot in this century from my distant observations. |  |

But that’s my point Glassers.
Lucas is going about his day doing nothing at all. The guy recording is so focused on Israel/Palestine stuff that he would rather harass a Jewish person on the probability that they have a difference of opinion over that issue than just acting normal. Imagine deciding to be an asshole to someone purely because Lucas hasn’t shown support for the cause the guy recording is supporting. Terrible. | |

It happens now because of social media and smartphones. Film something, post it, sit back and watch the view numbers soar. Killers love the wall-to-wall anti-hero coverage their crimes receive and this is the same dopamine hit without the life sentence.
The digital revolution and it's "tech bros" are the cancer of society. Can't wait for smart glasses to become mainstream. |  | | |

Awful. Just leave the guy alone. It’s the worst combination of racist harassment and (albeit a lesser issue, but one that fuels the first) filming for clicks.
As an aside and not meant to detract from the point of your OP, have you ever considered coming off X given that its owner is a white supremacist and comfortable throwing around Nazi salutes? Supporting him does’t seem consistent with standing against racism, or is there a benefit I’m not aware of? You can of course do what you want and tell me to mind my own business!, but I’m just curious as to why people are still on there if they care about social justice, which you obviously do. |  |

No. I tried Bluesky and it's an echo chamber. Twitter is still the best platform to get a bigger picture on wtf is going in in the world. All the major parties use twitter. All the major football clubs use twitter. All the major media outlets use twitter. Many of the major anti racism orgs I follow use twitter. If everyone with a shred of decency left twitter it would become what Musk wants it to become. | |

It's because we now live in a 'content' obsessed world.
If you go on Youtube it's increasingly hard to find anything worthwhile because it's all 'influencers' doing stupid sh1t for likes and clicks or regurgitated AI rubbish. The lengths people are willing to go to for attention will carry on increasing. Remember that c#nt who walked into random houses to film the reaction? So many people are just desperate for attention. How many people do you see at football stadiums who hold their phones up for 90 minutes because it's more important to get a few seconds of unique footage than actually watch the game. When someone gets a penalty, look at the crowd. It's pathetic.
I don't think it's any surprise some people are happy to resort to something like this. Anti-Semitism is now acceptable to many people. |  |

When they overstep and it becomes harassment, the “content creators” need to be attacked until they learn now to behave. | |

the phones at football thing absolutely kills me inside
guy next to me at derby spent a good few moments getting phone out, getting the video up, hitting record to film himself celebrating davis' goal.
by the time he'd stood still to do all that the initial moment had gone.
and the funny bit was he'd only just put his phone away too, he'd spend the first 25mins of the second half reading the comments on a photo of a birthday cake on linkedin, and various other social media posts.
some other guy (think he was friends with morsy) films the entire game for his content, talking through the game to himself. i think its a mental illness | | | |

Because it’s one of numerous examples of Jews being harassed in London every single day.
And this isn’t a “content creator”. It’s somebody trying to publicly shame a Jew that they have spotted and filming him in order to get a reaction. | |

I wouldn't be surprised if the moron filming doesn't even know Matt Lucas is Jewish. He doesn't sound the brightest and it could quite easily be 'thicko with a phone spots a famous person and tries to get them to say something controversial for clicks.' |  |

Executive Summary
CST recorded 3,700 antisemitic incidents in the UK in 2025, the second-highest total ever reported to CST in a single calendar year. This is an increase of 4% from the 3,556 anti-Jewish hate incidents recorded by CST in 2024, and 14% lower than the highest ever annual total of 4,298 antisemitic incidents reported in 2023. CST recorded 1,662 antisemitic incidents in 2022, and 2,261 in 2021.1
The increase from the total recorded in 2024 reflects that antisemitic incident levels remain at a significantly higher rate than was the case prior to Hamas’ terror attack on Israel on 7 October 2023. There was an immediate and significant spike in recorded cases of anti-Jewish hate in the UK in the aftermath of that attack. The subsequent war, and its grip of public and media attention even during periods of ceasefire, has continued to impact the amount and nature of anti-Jewish hate reported in the 27 months since that date.
In 2025, CST recorded an average of 308 antisemitic incidents per month, exactly double the monthly average of 154 incidents reported in the year preceding 7 October. For the first time ever, CST recorded over 200 cases of anti-Jewish hate in every calendar month in 2025. Prior to October 2023, monthly incident totals exceeding 200 had only been reported to CST on five occasions, each coinciding with past periods when Israel was at war.
The most severe antisemitic incident during 2025 was the fatal terrorist attack at Heaton Park Synagogue on Yom Kippur, the holiest day in the Jewish calendar, which resulted in the deaths of Melvin Cravitz and Adrian Daulby and left three others seriously injured. This was the first time that an antisemitic terror attack in the UK has resulted in the loss of life since CST began recording incidents in 1984.2
The terror attack in Manchester triggered an immediate spike in antisemitism. CST recorded 403antisemitic incidents on 2 October, the day of the attack, and another 40 the following day 3 October. These were the two highest daily totals for antisemitic incidents in 2025. In the week preceding the attack, CST recorded 64 cases of anti-Jewish hate. In the week that followed, CST recorded 181, marking an increase of 183% from week to week. CST recorded 463 instances of antisemitism across October, rising by 65% from 281 incidents in September. This makes October 2025 the highest monthly total in 2025 and the fifth-worst month for antisemitism in CST’s records. While CST usually records a small increase in antisemitic incidents on Yom Kippur – for example, there were 17 incidents recorded on Yom Kippur in 2024 – this alone cannot explain the much larger spike in incidents on the day of, and days following, the attack.
Of the 80 antisemitic incidents recorded across 2 and 3 October, 42 (53%) involved direct reactions to the attack on Heaton Park Synagogue. Three involved face-to-face taunting and celebration of the attack to Jewish people; while 39 were antisemitic social media posts referencing the attack, abusive responses to public condemnations of the attack from Jewish organisations and individuals, or antagonistic emails sent to Jewish people and institutions. As observed in previous years, violent attacks on Jews, whether in Britain, Israel or elsewhere, sometimes generate more anti-Jewish invective from antisemites who feel emboldened to express their prejudice.
Similarly, a smaller spike was observed in December in the wake of the Islamic State-inspired terrorist attack at a Chanukah event in Bondi Beach, Australia. This shooting claimed the lives of 15 people who attended the event. CST’s highest daily incident totals for December 2025 fell on 14 December, the day of the attack, with 16 incidents reported, and the two subsequent days, with 19 and 15 incidents recorded respectively. Of these 50 incidents, 21 directly referenced the attack on Bondi Beach – 20 online and one offline – and recycled much of the same anti-Jewish rhetoric observed in incidents reported in the wake of the attack on Heaton Park Synagogue.
The terror attack on Heaton Park Synagogue is one of four antisemitic incidents in 2025 that were severe enough to be classed as Extreme Violence, meaning they involved a threat to life or Grievous Bodily Harm (GBH). This is double the two such incidents reported in 2024 and more than the total number of Extreme Violence cases recorded across the past three years combined.
CST recorded 170 incidents in the category of Assault, a decrease of 16% from the 202 reported in 2024. These comprise antisemitic physical attacks that did not have the intention or potential to cause life-changing or life-threatening injuries. Taken together with the four instances of Extreme Violence, physical attacks on Jewish people constitute 5% of the annual total in 2025, compared to 6% in 2024.
Cases of Damage and Desecration to Jewish property rose by 38%, from 157 in 2024 to 217 in 2025, the highest annual total ever recorded in this category. Sixty-eight of these involved damage to the homes and vehicles of Jewish people, 51 to posters, ribbons and memorials in honour of the hostages captured by Hamas, 25 to synagogues, 20 to the property of Jewish businesses and organisations (including six to public chanukiahs – a candelabra used during the festival of Chanukah), eight to Jewish schools, six to kosher food aisles at supermarkets, and three to Jewish cemeteries.
There were 196 incidents reported to CST in the category of Threats in 2025, which includes direct threats and explicit incitement of violence to people, institutions or property, rather than general abuse containing non-specific threatening language. This is a decrease of 22% from the 251 incidents of this type recorded in 2024.
CST recorded 3,086 reports in the category of Abusive Behaviour in 2025, more than in any other year bar 2023 and a 6% rise from the 2,917 such incidents logged in 2024. This figure eclipses every previous annual figure across all categories with the exception of 2023 and 2024, and forms 83% of all cases of anti-Jewish hate reported to CST in 2025.
There were 27 incidents reported to CST in the category of mass-produced antisemitic Literature in 2025, equal to the number of such cases recorded in 2024.
Of the 3,700 antisemitic incidents recorded by CST in 2025, 1,977 (53%) referenced, or were linked to, Israel, Palestine, the Hamas terror attack or the subsequent war. Each of these cases also evidenced anti-Jewish language, motivation or targeting. This was true of 52% of the incidents reported in 2024, 43% of those in 2023 and 15% of those in 2022: a year unaffected by a significant trigger event in the region.
Edit. The section I have highlighted is very disturbing. When there are terror attacks against the Jewish community, there is an immediate subsequent *rise* in antisemitic attacks in the aftermath.The targeting of Jews emboldens other antisemites to act in turn. An antisemitic terror attack is like a bat signal to these scumbags. [Post edited 16 Feb 9:06]
