Kemi Badenoch has declared antisemitism a “national emergency” and refused to back down after being confronted by a heckler at a local event in Billericay, Essex, who attempted to draw an equivalence between attacks on Jewish people and those on Muslims. The Conservative leader was speaking about the normalisation of hatred towards Jewish communities at the Monday event when the woman interrupted.
