Nearly half of British Jews are considering leaving the UK because of anti-Semitism since October 7, according to polling data published by the Campaign Against Antisemitism (CAA).
Based on the data of the CAA survey, 69% of British Jews answered (40% definitely) that after the massacre on October 7, they show less signs of their Jewishness (wearing a Star of David, kippa, etc.).
Since the Hamas massacre, almost half (48%) of respondents are considering leaving the UK because of anti-Semitism.
The research participants were also asked whether they or their acquaintances had experienced or seen an anti-Semitic incident since October 7.
61% of the respondents gave an affirmative answer.
When asked whether they were "satisfied with the BBC's coverage of the Israel-Hamas crisis", some 86% said they were not, including 71% who strongly felt this way. Only 4% said they were satisfied, of which 1% were very satisfied and 4% had no opinion. The remaining respondents said they do not watch or listen to the BBC.
Almost everyone (97%) agreed with the statement "I feel a personal connection to the events in Israel".
Finally, when asked if they considered themselves Zionists, four out of five respondents said yes.
Only 6% disagreed, of which 2% strongly disagreed; the others did not express an opinion.
